Suggest Remedy For Severe Throat Pain

Hi, I have a very bad pain at the left side of my throat. I've tried everything, the pain comes and goes but it's really bad during the night. It was accompanied by a cold about 9 days ago, the cold left after a day or two, but the throat pain stayed. I take a lot of Advil to help. I don't know what's going on. I tried drinking some orange juice an hour ago, it made it 10times worse.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The severe throat pain can be because of the bacterial infection involving the throat. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like ciprofloxacin or azithromycin(if you are not allergic). Do saline gargling.
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
