What Causes Lump In Throat And Sore Glands After A Flu?
I took the flu injection about a month ago.
For the past 3 weeks I've had a blocked nose, cough, phlegm and heaviness in the chest, and initially had fever and headache. I have taken anti-biotics. It was starting to go away but now I've got a lumpy throat and my glands are sore and my body aches.

Hi I read through your query and I must say that nothing to get worried in this case. It can be due to inflammed tonsils(tonsilitis). It can be reduced by having lots of warm water and hot foodstuffs. Avoid having cold food. Take azhithromycin drug . And do salt water gargle as many times as possible. Do tongue scraping after brushing and mouthrinse with chlorhex mouthwash. Follow these and see the difference. Hope I have answered your query. Have a healthy day!!!
