Hello,

As per your query, you have symptoms of sore throat and yellow cough which seems to be due to chest infection/ chronic upper respiratory tract infection and seems to be poor immunity of body as well.

Need not to worry about it. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles and take steam inhalation on daily basis. You should visit ENT specialist once and get it examined.

You should get chest x-ray done along with throat swab test and blood tests and start treatment after proper diagnosis. You do not seem to have throat cancer.

Take proper course of antibiotics, avoid oily and sharp food, drink plenty of fluids, and apply mist humidifiers in room. Also, avoid cold carbonated beverages.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
