Stuck kinda feeling in throat
Hello Doctor!
In the month of march I had a swelling near lower chin (submandibular) .when I went to consult a doc he said there is an infection and he prescribed me antibiotics and painkillers..it's gone now..however sometimes I feel like something is stuck in the throat ..I get a bit of dry cough in night time as well.. swallowing is good no issues with that..but I'm a bit concerned about this irritation near throat region..even after drinking water the feeling doesn't go for atleast 30mins.
Also the feeling or irritation reaches ears as well..so overwhelming..
