Suggest Remedy For Itchy And Dry Throat
Hi, I have had an itchy/dry throat for a few days and today the back of my tongue developed bumps in the shape of a v. I have some nasal drainage but not much, my glands in my neck are also swollen. Along with a mild headache. My tongue also has a whiteish/yellow film coating it, that can be scraped off. Is this cause for alarm? Or just a virus? Also my throat does not hurt at all, just scratchy/itchy.

Hello,
In my opinion, I think this is mostly a viral situation. Don’t worry so much. You can take painkillers during this time and try to have some rest.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
