Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat And Globus Sensation
Question: HI, My daughter has been experiencing a sore throat, then a lump feeling that is also sore to swallow and lump sensation in her stomach that gets little upset after she eats and burping.
Brief Answer:
Gurgling with lukewarm water should help
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone through your query carefully and understand your concerns. Such sore throat can be caused due to some viruses like Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) (causes mono), or some bacteria like Streptococcus (causes Strep throat). Irrespective of the cause, all she needs to do is to gargle with lukewarm water and recovery will occur in a week or so.
Regarding her gastrointestinal problems, I would suggest the following:
* Avoid spicy food. Take small but frequent meals. Avoid long gaps between meals.
* Give Lanzol Junior tablet (Lansoprazole) 30mg once daily before breakfast.
* Give plenty of green leafy vegetables as well as other sources of dietary fibres. Take fibre supplements like isapaghul/psyllium husk or Senna. I would request you to increase her dietary fibre intake.
* Regular playing or exercise for at 1 hour a day to keep the bowel movements proper.
* Give curd or yoghurt on daily basis. It contains beneficial bacteria and should help.
Hope that helps. Please let me know if I could help further.
