How To Overcome Lower Throat Pain?

Yesterday, out of blue, I started to get lower throat pain, it increases as time went on, by bed time my chest and lower throat hurt so bad, I couldn't stand it, it seems like movement make it hurt worse, took zantac thinking gastric reflux, although I've never had that, and a pain reliever neither one helped.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of throat pain which seems to be due to upper respiratory tract infection or poor immunity of body and due to excessive acid production in body. Need not to worry. Avoid intake of cold carbonated beverages. Avoid intake of sharp spicy food. You should apply mist humidifiers in room. You should take throat lozenges to soothe throat. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined and start treatment after proper prescription. You should maintain oral hygiene. Do warm saline gargles. You can go for blood and sputum tests as well. You should take proper course of antibiotics along with antiinflammatory medications.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
