I had this and I got medciation for it but one dr. gave mesomething that did nto help but another one gave me something that helped. I think I had a bacterial infection no fever. but burning throat now like bak in 2009 from a man I am friends with. I have difficulty swallowing too. Like I burned my throat. swollen glands. I was in San Antonio for 10 days sick but a Dr. there gave m no meds and said th ae culture came back negative for naything? I must call Dr. U. Petl in Downers Grove I think is the city. He finally gave me the correct medciation. I am going on Feb. 6th to bodylogic also. I have to get natural medciation . I have been on estrace cream for aobut 2 weeks now. Ihad had painful sex and dryness , low libedo. Could that medciation casue the throat to burn, ect. I had been a caregiver for the saem man in late Dec.right ater x0mas so I think it is from him if Ireally have something. I just took non asprin and silver spray.
