Unknown condition that effects my throat, chest and mouth.

*** Posted in general because its both chest &ENT ****

I've been having this problem where after seeing many many healthcare professionals there has been no outcome. This has been going on for almost 2 years, have been through so many misguided professionals to where one labeled it stress and another later said, who ever thinks its stress is wrong. I have been smoking inconsistently since it started. I'm 18.

Symptoms:

  • In throat with deep breath i receive a sharp pain at the bottom of my neck/ throat meeting the chest causing me to cough. (If I fight the pain, holding my deep breath, it slips away.)
  • Found im really bad at running, unsure if its because im unfit, but it normally hurts after running in the chest, If I run hard I choke sometimes, ts me choking on mucas and find it hard to breath but still unsure if its my fitness. I never remember running being like this I use to compete.
  • Unsure if the above ///\ is connected to bellow /// but I think It is
  • My mouth sometimes looses skin layers as if it peels and then it heals back
  • Ulcers in my mouth, anywhere normally, sometimes in the same place.
  • Mouth is dry allays
  • Originally I had thin bubbly mucus constantly from 2 years to a half a year ago, however now when I suction my tong to the roof of my mouth I grapple like very large clumps of mucas ranging from the size of a lego brick to an m&m -Great definition I know
  • Mucus is creamy yellow and brown, with super sliminess, and sometimes almost bits of harden lumps in it.
  • breath normally, eh not great
  • -Mucus always common when I wake up
  • If I cough its more of a cough to clear and sounds like a splatter, usually a deep cough, coughing only if i need and not stupidly excessive but definitely common during the day
  • all together is super uncomfortable

Initiatives iv tried:

  • Sent to 2 ENT specialists, one stating its stress, yet I almost forgot about it for a wile untill the symptoms got worse, I still stand strong to it not being stress, because this 'thing' has been super consistent for 2 years
  • -ENT looked down nose said nothing is wrong
  • Tried nasonex multiple times for about 2 weeks strait, no effect, (this was done in early stages with clear mucus.
  • Most Antibiotics (IDK which)
  • Even getting my tonsils removed, no effect
  • Seeing a mouth specialist, been told to get off sls containing products. (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) No effect
  • had doctor listen to my chest, no findings.

Still however havn't had any xrays.

    Hello Bashkan

    Could you maybe do chest Xtay and test for TB?

    Do you have mould in your house?

    Maybe test for Aspergillosis

    And a test / swap for strep throat infection and HSV1 and 2

    Also do you by any chance have infected tooth or mercury fillings or root canal?

      Ok Ill get onto the chest Xray Karl. As for mold, I don't see anything obvious going on. I do however spend allot of time in a room where the air doesn't get filtered. I also got a std test and was tested negative, maybe that is different to HSV? I do however have some additional symptoms, the skin I get in my mouth had allot of soft, almost seemingly dead spots. I get chest pain when i force out my air to where my lungs are reduced with as much as I can exhale out to make them small. Also constant flavor in my mouth. Asthma when triggered by smoke. As far as tooth problems, I get blood always apon agitation. Sometimes white s**t all around the tooth entries.

      Hi

      Some self help ideas :-

      Stop smoking - today

      Get a dental check - all dentists look for mouth problems as well as teeth. Bleeding from gums on cleaning is never normal, may be gum infection.

      Ask dentist for any sign of an oral thrush infection. Frequent antibiotics affect normal healthy bacteria balance in the mouth allowing fungal infections to grow in respiratory system.

      Improve Vitamin B intake. Tablets initially. Low Vit B known to cause sore mouths.

      On a personal note I'm sensitive to Chlorhexidine found in many mouthwashes and toothpastes with red colouring which gives me a peeling mouth and soreness. Maybe the same for you.

      Hope this
