Suggest Remedy For Throat Problems

My 17 year old son has had a sore throat.......it s actually more like the neck area, behind his Adam s apple. This has been almost two weeks. I took him to the doctors, they ordered an ultrasound and the results were normal. That was 3 days ago and he is still having severe discomfort and is visibly uncomfortable when swallowing. He s been taking Advil to take of the edge and eating soft foods, liquids and cold icing things. Dr is dismissing it as a possible abrasion in his treachea. We leave in 3 days for vacation!!!
