Hello Anubhooti,
Thanks for posting the query.
As i chatted with you earlier it is the post viral effect. It stays for 3 weeks and is self resolvable. For immediate result you can take symptomatic medicines like TAB.HIFENAC D. 1 tab for 2 times daily for 3 days. Along with it you can give alternative ice and heat therapy 2 times daily.
Take care.
