It eventually turned into a sharp pain in the bottom of my throat, and eventually into a sore throat then went away without knowing what it was. This lasted about a month and i forgot about it. Today i noticed a sharp pain while i was breathing. It hurts my whole chest but starts in the sternum. I thought it was a continuation of pain through the knots in my back (minor scoliosis) but i noticed by the end of the day that this is exactly how that strange sore throat felt like last time!
I'm 17 weeks 5 day and have a sore throat. What can I take to help with the pain. I drank hot tea and its not cutting it. I heard I can't take liquid children's tynole to coat my throat and help with pain. Is it true? And if so how much?
Thanks but its weird I haven't gotten a sore throat or anything throat related since i got my tonsils removed my senior year of high school I was 17 I use to get strep 7 or more times a year it would be so bad I would have white patches and swelling to the point I couldn't breath
I m having ear pain and sore throat and also have sore mouth, my tounge, upper area of mouth and also hav pain behind the ears...been like this for a week now. I m worried as I had a pap smear wich came back with hpv and ascus and I also hav large fibroids wich I m getting treatment for. My great worry now is that is this sore throat related to hpv as hpv can also cause head and neck cancer. I will be glad if someone can help me on it.
You have multiple negative tests, thus conclusively you do not have HIV. I do not doubt that you have a sore throat but to expect it to be due to HIV with multiple negative tests is unrealistic. Furthermore, had you had the ARS, the sore throat, accompanied by other symptoms would have come and gone by now. My advice is to stop worrying about HIV an see a health care provider to get their assistance in sorting this out. If a GP is not helpful ask to see and ear, nose and throat doctor.
I am starting to get a small cold. So far its just burning eyes, I've been sneezing, my nose is runny & my throat is so sore. The sore throat pain is the worse. Since I cant call my Dr right now, what can i take for the soreness? I read that honey, lemon & water works but that sounds nasty right now & i dont want an upset stomach on of it. I read cough drops are ok but then that they are not. Any suggestions?
Your persistent symptoms of sore throat, ear pain and lymph node swelling could be due to a throat infection, most probably streptococcal or a viral infection. Strep sore throat needs to be treated with an antibiotic as strep is a bacteria. Viral sore throat is best treated with rest, warm oral fluids and (OTC) Tylenol (acetaminophen) or ibuprofen for pain.
Hi, yes you can take halls, but this provides only temporary relief from the throat irritation. The sore throat could be due to an infection, most probably streptococcal or a viral infection.

m experiencing a scratchy sensation in my throat for last two weeks. There is no severe pain but just a scratchy sensation. It usually appear during the afternoon or in the evening and will be there till the night. It appears in the alternate days, one day after the other. I had a sore throat for the first time in the recent times on 13th of last month and it was there for 4-5 days and it cured without any treatment. Now it again started appearing from 26th of last month.
I have had a sore throat for the past few days. I have also had as high as a 101 temperature. My head aches and feels stiff in the back. I have recently given my boyfriend head after having had sex on my period. He said he washed his penis before allowing me to give him head. I am freaking out because i have been in pain and am scared to go to a doctor. Should i be worried about this being some sexual infection? Thank you!
I started having a sore throat about a week plus one day ago. It wasn't all that bad, just sore to swallow. I went home for the weekend hoping that my parents care would heal me up over the weekend, but we tried multiple things and the sore throat wouldn't go away. It only kept getting worse.
I would say put some salt in a cup of hot water and gargle. tastes nasty but relieves throat pain.
other thing is to put honey and fresh squeezed lemon into a cup of hot water and drink it.
make sure you drink lots of liquids to keep your throat moist and yourself hydrated.
if this continues for a few days, see your doctor as you may have strep.
good luck and hope you're feeling better soon!
Its rare enough that it wouldn't be near the top of the possible causes of your sore throat - it wouldn't even make the top 10 list.
You need to go to the doctor and get checked. Honestly, strep throat, allergies, etc., are just so much more likely to be the cause of your sore throat, and worrying about something that MIGHT cause it but most likely hasn't is not a good thing. You need to get it checked.
