Hello,
Thank you for the post on HCM.
I have gone through your history which is in favor of Upper Respiratory tract infection and aphthous ulcer in the mouth and in the throat.
The causes for the ulcers should be evaluated.
I would have advised
1. Oral Antiboitics for 5 days
2. Mouth Gargling with chlorhexidene mouth wash
3.Oral Analgesics and Antipyretics
4. You can apply ulgel or Dentogel on the spots.
Your symptoms will come down with this.
I wish you a speedy recovery.
Thank you.
