Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat And Diarrhea
I woke up with a mild sore throat Saturday a.m. that turned to very severe by Saturday night & Sunday. Now today, Monday, I still have the sore throat & also have diarrhea. Seems like a strange combination. Do I have 2 separate things going on, or one weird thing?

Hello,
I went through your query and I understand your problem.
You seem to have consumed a spoilt food/drink or polluted water. This will cause both sore throat and diarrhoea. You need not to worry much.
Drink warm water for few days.
Do salt water gargling 3 to 4 times a day.
For diarrhoea please take ORS powder.
I hope with this your problem will be resolved.
Even after this, if your problem persists reply back to get further advice.
Take care.
Regards,
Dr. Prathap
