I have a sunflower seed stuck in my throat, it has been stuck for 5 days now. I am now experiencing an ear infection feeling. The seed has settled in sideways and my throat seems to be getting more inflamed the more I try to get it to pass. Any suggestions before going in to the doctor?
You may be suffering from acute pharyngitis may be caused by viral or bacterial infection. Avoid spicy food and, alcohol avoids smoking and caffeine drinks. Salt water gargling and water vapor inhalation thrice a day. Use tablet augmentin twice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
