General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Based on the symptoms you have described, it states that you are having upper respiratory tract infection. Large lump in the throat could be tonsil which has swollen as a result of infection.
Kindly do the following to overcome it.
1. Salt water gargling with warm water twice daily.
2. Take decongest syrup containing Ambroxol/Bromhexine with Chlorpheniramine maleate and Guaphenisin.
3. Use medicated lozanges when necessary.
4. Take analgesic medication containing Ibuprofen with Paracetamol when necessary.
5. Avoid intake of cold items like cool drinks and ice creams.
Gradually, your symptoms should subside and you should get better.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
