Suggest Treatment For Throat Pain And Dryness In The Throat

Hello! I have been a fairly steady smoker for the past 10 years. Recently after I smoke my throat feels a little dry and it hurts directly in the center in the back of my throat. It does not hurt to swallow and I m not coughing at all. It just feels a little uncomfortable and a little dry. The pain also seems to go away completely if I don t have a cigarette. It only occurs now when I smoke. I ve officially stopped smoking but I m still concerned that I have pain now when I never did before. Suggestions?
