General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

It looks like you are suffering from chronic throat infection or Pharyngitis. Do warm saline gargle 2-3 times a day. Take a course of Ampilox for 5 (five) days. You can take acetaminophen for relief. Take antihistamine, one at bed time to feel better. Take semi solid food like porridge, oats, custard. Take voice rest. Stay away from pollution, anxiety and stress. Sometimes stressful life triggers symptoms. Stay well hydrated and well fed.

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

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
