Suggest Medication For Scratchy Pain In Chest And Sore Throat
I woke up with a slight tickle in my throat and it has been getting progressively worse. Now I've got scratchy pain in my chest behind the sternum, and a sore throat, though I can still speak. What sort of over-the-counter medicine would you suggest for tonight?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Possibility of viral upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) is more likely.
So take DCold total or sinarest tablet. Bothering these are available OTC (over the counter).
Along with medicine, also drink plenty of fluids, avoid oily and spicy food, avoid junk food, avoid hard to chew food and do warm water gargles 5-6 times a day.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
