Hello,

The symptoms you explain may be due to Crohn disease. It may affect the digestive system from the mouth to the anal area so the throat problems might be related to that as well.
You will need to let your doctor know of the fact that you are not improving.

There is treatment to put Crohn under control and you might need to get that to help with the symptoms. If you already taking something to reduce inflammation in Crohn your doctor needs to know still so that other medications can be added or tried to help with the inflammation (these may be steroids or other medications that suppress the exaggerated immune reaction in the case of Crohn).

I hope this answers your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
