Hello,
You must get an ENT consultation done and get her throat examined by getting done flexible fiber optic naso pharyngo laryngoscopy .
Without examination it is difficult to say the condition of throat and the food which she can take.
Also you can do--
Ask her to take liquids
Give her multivitamins
Liq. Xylocain gargle to make her mouth and throat numb for some time give it half an hour before meals .
Betadine gargles.
Take care of reflux or acidity
