How Can Pain And Irritation On Left Side Of Adam S Apple Be Treated?
hello, I have a discomfort in my throat area. The left side of my Addams apple has been hurting for about a week now. Not too bad just some irritation here and there, and its not constant. Almost like an inflammation. It does hurt a little to the touch, but my throat isn t sore. Nor is it causing any coughing or weezing. It doesn t hurt to swallow.
