Hello XXXXXXX

Pain in throat could be due to any congestion of throat like sore throat or swelling around tonsils or Eustachian tube block (Which connects ear, nose and throat) due to cold weather also can cause it. Sometimes acid reflux can cause inflammation of throat and can cause pain

I would like to know Do you have pain in ear?

Do you have cough?

I suggest you do salt water or betadine gargles twice a day for 3 days.

Anti inflammatory medication like Ibuprofen 400 mg. Use it sparingly.

If you have any queries I will be happy to help you.
Thank you.
