I Have Been Having Some Weird Throat Pain, What Might Be The Problem ?
Hi I am an 18 year old female,and i have been having some weird pain in my throat . it only happens every once in a while. It feels like the muscles in my throat on the left side catch on eachother when I swallow,causing a great deal of pain. And it also makes a popping noise as well. What might be the problem ?

Hello sister
As u told u r having throat pain and difficulty in swallowing. This may be due to pharyngial or tonsil infection/inflammation. Please make a habit of doing warm saline water gargles every morning and evening ( if not having blood pressure disease) and take steams frequently. As the pain more on left side it may be tonsilitis of left. Maintain oral hygeine.
