Suggest Treatment For Painful Sore Throat

Hi, I have strep throat and am having a lot of build up of saliva, and feel the need to spit it out since swallowing is so painful. Also, I am trying to drink as much as possible, but even when I do, I still feel the need to spit shortly after and this is making me nauseous from time to time. Will this pass soon, or is there anything I can do to stop it?

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, as you have painful sore throat dont worry you can do warm saline gargle two - three times a day.

You can take one tablet Azithromycin once daily for three days

One Tablet Metronidazole twice daily for 3 days

One Capsule vitamin B complex once daily for three days.

You can take these medication by consulting with your doctor .

Hope this will help you.

Wishing you good health.
