Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat After Oral Sex

Ha, I performed oral sex on a female the other day for maybe 10 to 20 seconds. The next day I woke up with a sore throat. I am also experiencing some minor drainage so I'm not sure if I'm overreacting and this could possibly just to be a sinus infection.

Hi..
Welcome to HCM..

As per your complain the symptoms are pointing towards throat infection and not sinus infection..
It can be due to bacterial or viral infection..
I would suggest you to consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and a throat swab culture can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..

-As of now you should continue taking antibiotics for a week and also take anti inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen..

-You can gargle with warm saline solution..

-You can chew a Vitamin C pellet daily..

-You can avoid spicy and hard foods and take a soft bland diet with plenty of fluids..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
