My mother's age is 43. Her throat and nose are completely dry and blocked. She wanted to eat, but can't eat because of the same. We have tried several medicines and home remedies, but nothing is helping. A Dr. said she is having acidity. She took the medicine yesterday and was feeling a bit better, but today again she is feeling the same. There is no pain in the throat. No fever also. Also, there are some family problems, so she is stressed too. When she eats, it feels heavy on chest. Please suggest what we should do. We have consulted many doctors. Ent specialist prescribed her acidity meds.
