How Can Hoarseness And Pain In The Throat Be Treated?

My voice is very hoarse... I can only whisper. My ear on the left side hurts all the way down in it. My throat hurts to swallow anything other than cold liquids. My nose is kind of running not enough that I have to blow it constantly but every once in a while I have to blow it so it doesn t drain down my throat. Is there anything I can do at home to help. I have looked a couple of things up and I think I may have laryngitis but I m not sure. I can t really afford to miss work this close to the holidays.

It is better to go and consult an ENT doctor. but for time being you can take following medicine
1. TAB CLAVAM 625mg 1tab three times a day
2. cap PAN 40 one tab before breakfast.
3. GARGLE with betadine solution in lukewarm water atleast 3 times a day.
DO not prick your ears and dont over stress your throat by speaking. take food items which are easy to swallow and neither too hot nor too cold.
