Itchy throat can be the sign of something serious, such as throat cancer.

In reply to Cha Oiugab.

Hi Cha. We cannot advise you on your treatment. Your ENT will overlook that. Allergic sinusitis is often a chronic condition. The inner lining of your nose and sinus

reacts to otherwise harmless substances known as allergens. This causes irritation and inflammation which you experience as the symptoms of sinusitis.

The treatment for allergies is to reduce the allergic reaction and suppress the inflammation. This may be done with a combination of pills and nasal sprays. Your ENT will prescribe these medications and it takes some time before your condition will be properly managed.

The lemon juice can be very harmful. The inner lining of the sinus and nose is very thin and sensitive. The acidic lemon juice will irritate and damage this lining which is why you are experiencing pain when you use the juice. You need proper medical treatment.

If you are not happy with your current ENT or treatment, then see another ENT for a second opinion. Do not try to treat your condition on your own in this way. You could be doing more harm than good in the long run.

In reply to Amanda. Hi Amanda It is possible that you have a secondary bacterial infection following your viral infection (flu). This is not uncommon and you should see your doctor again to report these symptoms. You may need to start on antibiotics. It could be bronchitis or have even progressed to pneumonia. Acute sinusitis may also be present. You need to see your doctor immediately.

Hi, I got the flu the day after christmas and started on medication that monday the 27th. I have had a bad cough the whole time, but I took all of my medication. My throat constantly feels like I have a wool scarf rubbing in it and it is very itchy. When I cough I almost make myself throw up everytime because the cough gets violent. It is hard to swallow and I feel like my throat is swollen. I am also having blood in my tissue when I am blowling my nose and it hurts to talk. I have this constant feeling of losing my voice.
