helloo...reading ur query i feel that it is a viral infection...but dont worry..viral infection usually doesnt require any medicine(unless it causes other problems).viral infection can be treated symptomatically...regarding pain in throat u have to do warm salt water gargle as many times as possible ...then dont take cold food stuff(icecream cold water etc) till it is cured..take hot food...drink lots and lots of water(warm water if possible)..do tongue scraping after brushing(tongue harbours amount of microbes which v cant even imagine)..do chlorhexidine mouthwash...(kills many bacteria in mouth which increases throat infection).above all be cool and confident be happy thats the best medicine for all diseases...hope ur benefitted something with my reply...have a healthy day!!!
