Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat
Yes, and thank you. But lately I have been experiencing a very sore throat. It feels as if the right side of my throat is swollen. Along with that I have felt irritation in the back of my throat when I swallow, eat, drink, etc. large bumps have formed on the back of my tongue. I'm 16. And my weight is around 130. What could this be?

Hi,
It seems that you might be having acute pharyngitis giving this problem.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course like Azithromicin for 3-5 days.
Do antiseptic gargles.
Avoid cold drinks and junk food.
Ok and take care.
