Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat And Persistent Swelling In Glands
Hello, I have had a sore throat and swollen glands for a while now. the left side cleared up but the right side just wont clear up. I have drainage, I am taking a steroid nasal spray for it. I also like to drinkin the evenings. How do I know If its drainage or is the alcohol causing this? I do see red spots in my throat, but strep test was negative.... Lori

For sore throat and persistent swelling in glands you can take some antibiotic preferably cefadroxyl or azithral after an expert opinion along with some decongestants like wikoryl or diominic-dca. You can take syrup grilinctus-bm or syrup bro-zedex for soothing of your throat. Do warm water gargles and take steam inhalation to reduce the pain and congestion in the throat.
