Suggest Remedy For Sore Throat
I have had a sore throat since Sunday. I have tried sinus medicine and it s not working. The sore throat is only on one side and my ear hurts along with it. When I swollow it s pain full and there s a funny taste in my mouth. I do smoke as well. Is there anything I can take to make it feel better that s over the counter??

Hello & welcome to HealthcareMagic forum.
If I were your treating Doctor for this case , I would advice you
Antiseptic chlorhexidine Mouth Wash twice daily ,
Plenty of fluids ,
Steam Inhalation twice daily,
Saline nasal spray thrice daily
Antihistaminic levocetirizine + Montelukast combination &
combination of Paracetemol + Ibuprofen .
All this treatment plan is over the counter .
