What Is The Treatment For Sore Throat?

I had a sore throat for about two weeks than it started to feel better. The next morning I woke up and had this itchy feel to the back of my throat. Now everytime I swallow it feels as if there is a scab or something in my throat. I coughed and coughed until I got something up. It looked like a rubbery sticky scab. I still have the scab feeling though. Can anyone please tell me what this is?

Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
The sore throat can be because of the bacterial infection. Nothing to be panic, consult an ENT surgeon and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like azithromycin(if you are not allergic).
Do saline gargling. I hope i have answered your query. Take care.
