For over a month now, I been having this
problem in my throat. I have a feeling
like there's something sticky like phlegm
although it's not since I can't spit it
out and I have excessive throat clearing
and repetitive swallowing in order to
relieve it. When I drink and eat it
relieves it even way better, and sometimes
I have brief mild gurgly and wet voice
after all that throat clearing. Now my
symptoms come and go throughout the day
and some days it's almost not there or
symptom free.
This starting happening about 10 days
after I started a oral medication for my
severe acne called accutane. I haven't
spoken to my dermatoligst about this
because I fear he may take me off it and I
desperately need that medication, I only
have about 2-3 months left, been taking it
for 2 months already. It's a miracle
medication for acne were 70% of cases are
permanently cured. The medication does
say that complications like swallowing
difficulties or esophagus problems may
occur although very uncommon or rare but
nothing like what I have. So I doubt
this is it. So what can this be, should
I go to a otolaryngologist?
