What Acauses Burning Sensation In Windpipe?
My windpipe has been hurting for about a week or so after I had a bad cold and cough. It seems like a burning sensation when I breath in. In the morning it s not as bad but as the day goes on it seems to hurt more like my windpipe is swollen but it s not. I have no wheezing or anything like that .

Hello dear, thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
In my opinion you are having severe pharyngitis. This can cause inflammatory reaction in the pharynx.
This cause edema and pain with burning sensation in throat.
So better to follow these steps for better symptomatic relief.
1. Avoid oily and spicy food.
2. Drink plenty of fluids.
3. Warm water gargles 5 - 6 times a day.
4. Start antihistamine and anti inflammatory drugs.
If not improving with these then consult ENT doctor and get done clinical examination of your throat.
