Hello dear,

In absence of any objective finding during clinical examination of your throat, the symptoms can be attributed to Laryngo-tracheal allergy.

Management includes:
1. Gargle with warm salt water to relieve throat irritation.
2. Antihistamine preparations like Allegra
3. Antibiotics depending upon culture & sensitivity reports to remove the causative organism.

If symptoms still persist...it will be better to consult an ENT specialist.
Meanwhile...avoid taking cold food & drinks, maintain adequate hydration & take soft, non-spicy foods.

Wish you good health & a speedy recovery.
Take care.
