Does A Chest Infection Later Lead To Pain In The Throat And Fatigue?

The front of my throat (on the sides) is quite painful when I swallow or move the back of my tongue. I woke up with it days ago and it seems to be both sides, but it started only from the right side. I have noticed fatigue also since this but I just thought it was my sudden change of diet. My whole body feels like its in a flu like state but without any congested or excessive mucus or ear problems etc. I have however noticed that my phlegm is a darkish colour. I have recently recovered from what I htought was a chest infection and flu a week before this.

Hello ,

Thanks for consulting hcm

Read your query as you have painful throat on swallowing and back of tongue this can be due to throat infection or tonsillitis . For this I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon or Ent surgeon for examination of throat . Inmeatime do warm saline gargle 2 to 3 times a day and you can take medicone like Allegra or Azithromycin by consulting with local doctor .

Hope this will help you .
