Suggest Treatment For Dry Throat

I have been changing my diet to eat more fruits, vegetables and meats. So I have been eating a lot of salads. For the last 2 days I have had a very dry throat even after drinking glasses and glasses of water. I have no tonsils. And I don t have a sore throat, just sometimes scratchy.

Hello,

As per your query, you have symptoms of dry throat which seems to be due to increased citrus content and fiber in diet.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles. Take chicken soup in diet and take combination of honey with Luke warm water.

You should visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should also get throat swab test done along with blood tests and start treatment after proper diagnosis.

Avoid oily and sharp food, drink plenty of fluids and avoid cold carbonated beverages.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
