I have a throat pain above and left side of my adam s apple and also below the adam s apple area after i get a shoulder knock from my friends in a basketball game. I can actually feel there is a clicking sound when i press in the left side. what would be happening to me?
The clicking sound can be normally present as well. I would suggest you following things: > Take acetaminophen for pain & fever > Take hot water in a cup, add 1 table spoon salt in it. Perform gargles (mouth wash) with it three times a day for at least 3 days. It will give soothing effect.
AVOID: > Chilled water > Drinks > Spicy food
Report to hospital if: > Condition remain same after 2-3 days > Any unusual symptom appears > Condition deteriorates. > There is difficulty in breathing.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. Wishing you good health.
