How to manage difficulty in swallowing that has been present for over a year?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have had trouble swallowing saliva normally for over a year now, and I do not know why. I sing, and I have to get up early every morning to wake up my voice to be able to sing. I have taken pills for reflux, and they did not help at all. I constantly feel like I have a harsh sore throat. Can you please help?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern. Do not worry. 1. Give rest to your voice for a few weeks. 2. Do laryngeal exercises regularly to strengthen laryngeal muscles. 3. Avoid oily, spicy foods and cold drinks. 4. You can take tablet Septilin by Himalayas three times a day for three weeks. 5. You can follow up after seven days.
