hi, please help! for about a month i have a very odd sensation. i feel as if i have hair in my throat and as you can imagine, is very and very uncomfortable. also i have this feeling of having hair on the back of my tongue. besides this i cough and gag continuously because of this feeling. i'm desperate and i don't know what to do about it and how to escape from it: i'm brushing my teeth steady two times a day with mouthwasher everytime. first time when i felt it i was looking for the hair in the mirror and then asked my friend looking with a flashlight but we didn't find anything. i have my appointment to a doctor in a week, but i would like to get some anwers sooner because it's really uncomfortable. let me know please any information you have about this. thank you all.

Hello, I cannot answer your questions for sure, but I can give you some recommendations that might help. I'm also having this uncomfortable sensation of hair in my throat and I've already visited my doctor who told me some info, so I'm telling you what I've heard. First you need to have a biopsy done, there are some chances that you have overactive white blood cells and this is a sign of being allergic to something. When you are exposed to whatever you could be allergic then this sensation of hairy throat occurs. I guess you understand that this can be anything like food, clothes, detergent or even perfume, you could have started new diet, tried new detergent or anything new that you have started doing recently. Try to remember if you are using or eating something new too often lately. If is so then, as you already thought, you need to stop it immediately. Meantime, my doctor said to try some Benadryl at night, so I recommend you too. The bad part of it is the next day hangover after the Benadryl, but it usually helps me so it should help you too. Hope my suggestions will help you.
Anyway you said that you will go for an appointment in a week at your doctor, you have some updates?

ohhh, i see, i have been struggling with this sensation of hair in my throat for a little more than a year or so. this sensation was coming and going without a particular reason, or i don’t really know, maybe i just didn’t notice it. i got used to it because it only lasted few days and it went away after i was gargling those few days in row but the last time i had this sensation it was a real problem because I had it for almost a month or so and it didn’t disappeared. it has never been such a big problem for me and i never visited a doctor but i was almost sure that for me it’s a sinus issue that is giving me this sensation. i have been getting a thick mucus in the back of my throat and i put a finger on allergies. i was about to visit a doctor because i was desperate when i accidentally was invited by my friends to eat spicy food in a mexican restaurant these days :D. i was happily surprised to see that hot peppers and spicy food helped a little bit and from here the idea of buying a saline nasal spray came :D it was a miracle but it worked and some of the sensation of having a hairy throat went away almost immediately after first use. it didn’t disappeared completely but i’m going to use it every day so i’m having big thoughts that i’m going to be free of this sensation. i also thought of buying sinus tablets too to increase the process. i was searching the internet to see if my method is reliable but i haven’t got any answers. anyway i’m not upset, i see that it works so i decided i need to share it to others and i hope that it’s going to help somebody. good luck people and don’t forget to write your feedbacks! i’m curious :D

hi everyone, please help me with something because i can't stand it anymore! i have the exact same problem as you have written there but it seems that for me it is even more worse a problem than yours. i went to the hospital these days because i have started to caugh so much and so hard that i thought i'm going to choke to death. you may think that i'm exaggerating but i really thought that i'm nearly dying. now i'm really feeling very very bad, i don't know for sure how much this is going to be like that but i'm feeling terrible because my throat is sore, i can't swallow and at the back of my tongue it feels like i have some hair and like a few raised bumps. it literally feels like my throat is full with something and this gives me the worst nightmare i ever had. at the hospital the doctors made x-rays on my mouth and my neck and looked into my mouth and said that nothing was out of the ordinary and they could not give me a diagnose. they had a suggestion that it could be reflux and they put me on prevacid saying that it should work and it should give me a relief, it didn't i had absolutely no change. today i woke up and when i started to eat my breakfast i understood that i can no longer taste anything. it seems that my problem is getting worse with each day and no one is able to help me. these days i'm going to visit a private clinic maybe there someone can help me. i'm having a suggestion that it could be yeast infection that is affecting my mouth and throat but obviously i'm not really sure about that. who else had something like this? i really would want to know if someone got rid of this problem and how you did that. i'm going to be infinite thankful to you!
