Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In The Throat

I ve had a stomach flu for a week. Was vomiting tuesday, Wednesday felt a bit better then Thursday I was vomiting from 3 pm till midnight. Was sick once more Friday morning. Hadn t eaten that whole time. Still felt horrible all weekend. This whole time I ve had horrible pain in my throat to my stomach, I can only take small sips of water, it feels like it doesn t want to go down. And after each drink or nibble of food that whole area feels like it s burning. I would say the pain is 7. Anything spicy or acidic is excruciating.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
The stomach flue causing severe vomiting had made the lining of esophagus & stomach sore... eventually got inflamed to cause the symptoms.
- Taking Gelusil MPS liquid over the counter taken three times a day & sipping cold milk will offer some relief. Eat small servings of non spicy / non oily & smooth food only if the vomiting stops & you start digesting.
- Visit ER if you can not take anything orally for Iv fluids as per need & injectable medicines to start healing process.
Thanks
