Chronic Sore throat from 5 weeks

Asked for Male, 36 years

Started with a sore throat 4 weeks ago, lost voice and regained. Now there is a white colour tonsilloh type on right tonsils and the uvula is also red. There is an additional swelling i can feel now while swallowing. Its been 5 weeks. Should i be worried. the local doctor advised it was some nasty virus. There was no blood profiling done.

Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear that. These are nothing to worry about. I would recommend avoiding cold, sour or fried foods. I would also recommend that you use warm water to gargle twice or thrice a day. This should hopefully improve with that within a few days.
