Bad breath

Slight pain on right side of throat leading to right ear
Pressure & slight headache
Phlegm build up I cant swallow down.
tiny red blood vessels on right hand wall before the tonsil that are within a paisley shaped pattern.
Burping
Slight dry cough

SYMPTOMS I DONT HAVE:
No white spots on throat
No vomiting
Tonsils look ok
Left side of throat feels ok
No heartburn or stomach pain
Normal stool & urine
Clear nose

Drinking water,hot teas,rinsing with listerine & sleeping hasn't helped. It's the third day having this.

Non drinker/smoker & I eat healthy. I have no medical insurance.

Is this GERD or STRICTURE or?

Please help if you know what this is and how to treat it. What specialist should I go see?

I plan to get a blood test done because a year ago I was told by my doctor that I should exercise more due to having moderately high blood sugar. I took his advice & got myself back into shape. Could my blood sugar be doing this? TY

I'm currently seeing a doctor but I would like any input or advice you have. The doctor told me I have acid reflux disease (gerd) ... but my symptoms are that I have all kinds of saliva production and I can't always swallow it because I feel like I swallow too much air and then I feel pressure in my throat. I have difficulty swallowing because my throat feels very tight or narrow. If I eat anything crispy like a tortilla chip or some bacon my throat hurts for hours until days.

In the past month or so my speech is slowing down occasionally and sometimes I cannot get a word out. It's almost like a stutter, but more like my memory stops. My speech is slowing and sometimes it sounds like I am drunk (but I don't drink). Anyone have any suggestions, I am not sure what to do. I am also REALLY tired, and than have bouts of not sleeping.. My left arm goes numb a lot too. THANKS!

I am middle-age guy with normal cholesterol, no diabetes and normal chemistries. I had some blocked arteries for years now & yet I managed with really no chest pains or suffering. Last year - a car ran me over and I had much loss of blood and went into cardiac shock from the impact - & - had a MASSIVE heart attack which they said destroyed large areas of my heart muscle.
since the accident, I breathe with gasping if it's cold outside, or if I get anxiety. these symptoms are solely from the heart attack. I refuse to do bypass surgery - they admit it will only stay clear for some years and then later re-clog. I was told that there is no therapy, medicine or anything which will repair my severely DAMAGED heart muscle.- which give me symptoms. My ejection fraction is better than 50%. Prior to attack I had NO chest pains, I walked freely, climbed stairs. etc.etc. I also was told that my body created excellent COLLATERAL vessels to feed my heart,
What hopes do I have?

He keeps insiting he can do it himself, and he obviously can't. But he won't go to rehab willingly either, this has been going on for about 8yrs. and i am afraid he will end up dead from the addiction. Any advice or insight with this would be great!

I am diagonised with Low Back Pain about 5 months back. I am taking pain releiving tablets and gel for local aplication apart from LS Belt. After 3 months of wearing the belt, my doctor advised me to discard the LS belt and practice physiotherapy. But without belt, if I bent or lift moderatly heavy articles, I get pain in the lower back. I want to know what are the other treatment options? In future, if it is not diminished, will I need to undergo surgery? I used to ride two wheeler by wearing the belt. My job is office job, computer related, full time. I have got other diseases like Depression, Anxiety,Hypercholestrolemia, Asthma, Allergic Rhinitis and GH.
Will any doctors or experienced patients may answer my question.?

My mother had severe spine problems that couldnt be corrected, so she was placed on a morphine program to curb her pain. After Hurricane Katrina we moved to Nashville and her new Doctor refused to give her morphine, and after 2 years of taking this she went into severe withdrawal and then died,,,,she was 65. She had hart surgery 5 years ago and was on a pacemaker. Could the morphine withdrawal be the cause of her death?

Hi everybody.
this is my first post so please bare with me.
'm a 27 year old male.

I suffer from extreme anxiety, I experience horrible panic attacks. I'm always afraid that I'm dying or I have some kind of serious illness.
no heart disease in my fam, dnt smoke
I
Here is what is going on with me.
I have been to numerous dr's and ended up in the ER twice.

I have had 2 EKG's taken.

I'm on Effexor and I take Lorazapam when needed.

Lately I have been experincing slight pain up my left arm sometimes up my right arm too.
I get extremely dizzy, lightheaded, and my legs and arms feel weak at times.
I get a slight pain in my chest.
f I had to rate the pain from 1 to 10, 10 being the worse I would have to give it a 2.

Sometimes my jaw is sore. Dr says that is from clenching teeth but I rarely ever do that.
take my blood pressure twice a day it's usually on on the low side.
I'm concerned that something else is going on and that no one takes me serious enough

I am overweight. I went to the doc and I weigh more than 350. I'm only 15 years old. Wow. I have this dark ring around my neck, under my arms, a lil on my elbows, and in between my legs and some on my knees. I've noticed for years that I'm goin' to have a weight problem intill I do somethin' about it. Ever since I was a young girl at age 8. I have gotten the ring around my neck. But I was thin. I was not overweight at all, instead I was just underweight. Past the years the ring never went away and I began to gain more weight really fast. Suddenly as I went to age 12 I saw that it was now under my arms and other places. I don't know what this thing is. I just want to get rid of it. I'm afraid that in a few years that when I do loose the weight I need to loose that the dark spots will not go away. What should I do?! Is there anythin' or anyone out there to help me with this skin problem?

Suppose a urine sample revealed abnormal results, such as protein in the urine. If there is a result differing from the norm (color, pH, subtances present), should the physician always make an immediate diagnosis of a disorder? Why or why not?
