What Does A Swollen Throat With Difficultly In Pronunciation Imply?
Hi, I m a 19 year old male. I m having issues with my throat. It feels like I have sore muscles in my tongue/epiglottis, it hurts to swallow, and it hurts to say certain letters in wirds like S . My throat was sore from I m assuming mucus drip from my nose. Do you have any idea how to get rid of it?

Hello,
Your symptoms could be suggestive of a bacterial throat infection. For this reason, I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and a throat bacterial culture. Antibiotics may be needed.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
