Hello,
As per your query you have symptoms of burning sensation in the throat and headache which seems to be due to infection by strep throat. I would suggest you to
- Start with warm saline gargles and betadine gargles 3-4 times a day.
- For pain and burning sensation, you should take ibuprofen or acetaminophen.
- Avoid hot, sharp, spicy food substances and carbonated beverages.
-Drink hot milk with half teaspoon turmeric powder.
If symptoms keeps on persisting you should consult ENT specialist for proper diagnosis and rule out condition like viral infection. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics or antiviral drug depending upon the diagnosis along with decongestants and anti inflammatory medications.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
