Photobiomodulation (Red light) Therapy
Anyone hear of this Red light Therapy for mucositis and mouth swelling after radiation? I have for the past 5 years mucositis 24/7 from above my palate or sinus cavity which causes hard to swallow anything because my soft palate is also low after surgery..I have an orbital palate lift being made right now and that's not going to help to snort or hock out the mucous. This light also suppose to heal scarring tissue or radiation fibrosis.

Hi everyone!
I have been suffering from a chronic dry cough for over five years. During that time, I have seen several pulmonologists and ENT specialists and have tried countless medications and home remedies, yet nothing has provided lasting relief.
My cough occurs in episodes about every other month. Each episode lasts approximately two weeks, then disappears, only to return again a few weeks later. When an attack occurs, I cough intensely and uncontrollably for about 10 seconds. My eyes water, and I sometimes vomit from the severity of the coughing. Afterward, I may get some relief for about thirty minutes before the cycle repeats itself.
This condition has become extremely frustrating and has significantly affected my quality of life. I am trying to understand why this keeps happening and whether anyone has experienced something similar or can offer any insight into possible causes or treatments.
