Suggest Treatment Burning Sensation And Pain In Throat
About 5 days ago I had a pill stuck in my throat. It dissolved there and since then I have had terrible burning sores that go from back of my throat to slightly down my esophagus. Is there any over the counter I can take to help me through this awful burning and pain?

Due to foreign body there might be laceration and inflammation which cause the pain. so have gargle using the cholorohexidine solution. and it it pains lot have some simple analgesics. by some days it will be relieved. and have gargle with warm water too .
