Hi
Welcome to Health care magic.

Recurring sore throat usually indicate chronic infection.
This requires treatment by the use of appropriate antibiotics depending on the culture and sensitivity report. You can start with broad spectrum antibiotics and later depending on the culture report of throat swab you can ho for the antibiotics. Do consult your doctor for examination as treatment accordingly.

Thank you
