What Causes Constant Burning In The Throat?

I need a simple-short term solution: I smoked too many cigarettes yesterday and my throat is burning. Ive been trying to consume diary products like milk and ice cream to try to abate the burning, and ive been using anti-acid chewable tablets as well

Hi,

We will try to help you in the best way possible. First of all it's sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, it can be acute pharyngitis and using OTC analgesics like acetaminophen or Ibuprofen along with antihistamines like Cetirizine or Loratadine can help. Saline water gargles and steam inhalations may also help. Cigarette smoking should be decreased and gradually stopped.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
