Hello ,

Thanks for consulting Healthcare magic .
This is Dr. Priyanka tiwari answering your query .

I have gone through your quey . As far as sore throat and thick salivation is concerned it looks more likely due to strep throat . For this I will suggest you to consult Ent surgeon for examination of throat . Inmeantime do warm saline gargle 2 to 3 times a day . You can take medicine like Cetrizine or Allegra by consulting with local doctor . Quit your smoking habit .

Hope this will help you .
