Feels Like Congested Throat But No Pain. What Could It Be?
Hello! I have had what feels like congestion in the back of my throat for the past day and a half. It started with a scratchy throat, but no pain, and then progressed to a cough and congestion in the back of my throat. Besides hat, I feel completely normal. What could this be? I appreciate your help so very much!

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having viral infection in your throat.
Do antiseptic or hot water gargling.
Use some throat soothing lozenges.
Avoid fried, junk food and cold drinks.
Ok and take care.
