Suggest Treatment For Severe Fever And Sore Throat

Hi, Since yesterday morning I m feeling feverish and having a sore throat. By and by I get a headache too. I started to go for early morning walks since Sunday and is this the cause of being feverish and having sore throat? I want to know what kind of food I can have..I m having a desire to eat chocolates but when Googling saw chocolate not good due to high sugar level in it. Kindly advice please. Anjula.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of severe fever and sore throat which is due to bacterial infection leading to strep throat.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to avoid cold carbonated beverages. You should take antihistamines and antibiotic combination as infection is present. Do warm saline gargles 3 to 4 times a day. Take ibuprofen one tablet twice daily. Take soft foods to avoid irritation to the throat. Throat lozenges one every 4 hours is helpful. Drink lukewarm water throughout the day as it can provide relief.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
