Severe Sore Throat On Using Nicotine Gum, Blisters On Tonsils, Burning Sensation. Treatment?
I have a bad sore throat . I think it may be from using nicotine gum . My throat is not swollen but there looks to be blisters on my tonsils. My throat feels like it is on fire. I do not have any symptoms of illness like fever or acheness which is why I believe the gum is the cause. How can I relieve the on fire symptom I am experiencing?

Hello
Welcome in H.C.M.
Your clinical history is clearly indicating that your severe sore throat with burning is appears to be because of nicotine gum. Here I would like to suggest you -
1- Avoid this gum in future.
2- Take dispersible Deflazacort to get immidiate relief.
3- Antacid with anaesthetic like Mucaine gel may be helpful.
4- Local application of boroglycerine is also useful.
I hope this will help you.
Regards.
