What Causes Sore Throat, Runny Nose And Excessive Saliva In Mouth?

Hello Doctor. I have had a sore throat for the past 2 days and it hurts to swallow. I have also had a small runny nose, though not much congestion. Also, just recently, I have had an excess of saliva in my mouth and a pain in my lower throat. Also, i have been coughing for the past four days. Any dianoses?

Read your query sore throat , runny nose and excessive saliva can be due to throat infection . I will suggest you to consult ENT surgeon for examination of throat and get proper diagnosis .

Inmeantime do warm saline rinses 2 - 3 times a day , and avoid hot and spicy food . You can take medication like Alllegra and levofloxacine by consulting with local doctor .
