Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have red patches on the inner wall of my throat and have a stretch feeling of the throat while yawning. I have had this for the last three weeks. I am Raciper 40 mg. I have attached some pictures for your reference. Kindly advise.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have gone through the pictures (attachment removed to protect patient identity). The pictures show posterior pharyngeal wall congestion. I would like to know if you have any history of postnasal drip. Or any history of smoking or tobacco use? Thank you.
Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
No, I do not have any history of postnasal drip. I used to smoke cigarettes, usually three a day but stopped smoking after this problem.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Avoid smoking and use Hexidine (Chlorhexidine Gluconate) mouthwashes. I suggest you take vitamin C once daily for at least 10 days. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and take the medicines with their consent. Get an X-ray of the paranasal sinuses done and send me the picture so that I can suggest you better. Any further questions are always welcome. Take care.
Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
Is this a serious problem?
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
It is not malignant. There is nothing anything serious at all. Thank you.
