Hello, Nice to see your post on HCM. I have gone through your history. Sore throat will cause severe pain in the throat region and it makes you difficult to take the food.During sore throat the throat will be congested and swollen because of which you cannot swallow. I would Advise 1. Oral Antiboitics for 5 days 2. Mouth Gargling with chlorhexidene mouth wash 3.Oral Analgesics and Antipyretics. Thank you.
