How To Treat Red And Sore Throat?

Hello, The past three days I have had an extremely sore throat and have been taking lozangers for it... This is my third night and it is unbearable ... It hurts so much to swallow my own saliva ... Eating and drinking is worse. I did go to a dr and she told me it was viral. My tonsils are not swollen but my throat was very red and it just keeps getting worse!

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such throat symptoms could be due to allergic condition and this may be self limiting be patience and everything would be fine soon, if not then you can try "Tab Loratadine" once in day, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
