Had A Pass Injury And Fainted. Getting Head Throbbing While Smoking, Someone Hits My Head.

Hi, for the past 4 or 5 days I have had a stuffy left nostril and at the beginning just a mild sore throat but as the days went on the left side of my throat became inflamed and now there are multiple sores in the back of my mouth by my gums. They are white and oval in shape I was just wondering if you could tell me what this is?

Hi, thank you for posting.

Smoking causes the recession of organism immunity. The organism is easily affected by viruses, bacterial and fungal infections. If you live in North America, you have frequently stuffy nostril and then you have to breathe by mouth. Faint can be caused by dropping glycemic level, or by nicotine poisoning, so you should quit smoking .
I think you suffer from fungal infection (Oral candidiasis). You need to check glycemic leve(on an empty stomach) to eliminate the risk of Diabetes mellitus.
You need oral culture test. You also should contact an Otolaryngologist to check your nose.
