Hi, please use antiseptic gargles frequently along with proton pump inhibitors and analgesics. If there is fever, you need to take antibiotics in consultation with your doctor. A syrup with antacid and a local anesthetic helps in making swallowing comfortable. Avoid spicy, sour, oily or very cold food along with junk food. Sipping hot fluids also helps. Regards
