Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.

This could be throat infection. I would suggest you following things:
> Take Diphenhydramine + Dextromethorphan for cough (three times a day)
> Take hot water in a cup, add 1 table spoon salt in it. Perform gargles (mouth wash) with it three times a day for atleast 3 days. It will give soothing effect.

AVOID:
> Chilled water
> Spicy food
> Drinks
> Dust

If condition does not improve in 2-3 days or fever occurs then antibiotic cover must be given to eradicate bacteria.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
Wishing you good health.
