Suggest Remedy For Itchy Throat With Yellowish Tint On Roof Of Mouth

Yesterday I had a terrible itch in the back of my throat. It was very minor but today I woke up with a very itchy throat. No cough, no swollen lymph nodes. I looked in my mouth just now and the roof of my mouth has a yellowish tint to it. The back of my throat is veiny and has a few orange spots on it. My nose was slightly stuffy today too, but it isn't really bad. (My saliva is kinda thicker and tastes kind of funny. I don't know if that part is just me overreacting.) Please help thanks you!! :(

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain itchy and veiny throat, Yellowish tint on roof of mouth, stuffed nose and spots on throat are all indicating towards Viral throat infection..
As Viral infection tend to resolve gradually as the virus completes its cycle you can start taking supportive treatment to relieve the symptoms like take anti-inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen to relieve inflammation in throat, anti-allergics like Levocetrizine to relieve itching and running nose,decongestant to relieve congestion, warm saline gargles, steam inhalation and use a humidifier in your room..
You can such throat lozenges..
Drink plenty of warm water..
In case of no resolution consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and throat swab culture can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
