What Causes Pain In Throat And Swelling In Tongue?
My throat hurts to the point where I can barely swallow. I also notice my tongue appears a little swollen and I have a terrible build up of saliva which i have to spit out ever other minute because it hurts to swallow. I have a slight runny nose. I feel fine otherwise, but the pain in my throat is surreal
