Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of sore throat which seems to be due to upper respiratory tract infection. It could be due to poor immunity of body as well.

Need not to worry about it. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles and avoid oily and sharp food. Drink plenty of fluids. You should visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should get throat swab test and blood tests and start treatment after proper diagnosis. Take proper course of antibiotics. Apply mist humidifiers in room. Avoid cold carbonated beverages.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Harry Maheshwari
