What Causes Soreness Radiating From Roof Of Mouth To Breast?
I have a very sore throat---it goes from the roof of my mouth to the breast. /it hurts even to swallow water It feels all raw. I am a senior---my email is joan.cobb@ rogers.com. I have never had this before--just normal mild sore throats once a year maybe.
Acute sore throats are most commonly related to an acute viral or bacterial infection. Viral infections are more common than bacterial infections.
It is possible since the pain is severe however that it may be related to a bacterial infection and antibiotics may be needed. It would be best to see your doctor for an assessment which may include physical examination and a swab.
I hope this helps
