Suggest Remedy For Pain In Throat, Nose And Head After Vomiting
Question: I threw up on Thursday and basically threw up beer I drank from the night before and threw up to the point where I was heaving and spitting up yellow/green foamy mucus(I'm assuming bile/acid) which has left my throat , nose and head in extreme pain. It went down a little but it's Saturday now and still in pain.. Any home remedy suggestions or any in general??

Brief Answer:
Antacid soothes an inflamed area
Detailed Answer:
During the vomiting the throat became inflamed and the inflammation will take some time to heal. It was probably worsened by the lemon. Antacids would soothe the inflamed area and help it heal faster. You could try sipping cold milk also.
Another thing you can try is Xylocaine lozenges or spray which would anaesthetise the area and make the hurt less.
