Hello,
Thanks for consulting hcm
Read your query as you have sore and itchy throat and heaviness in chest this can be due to sore throat , common cold or chest infection . For this you should consult Ent surgeon for examination of throat and if needed go for investigation like chest xray . Inmeantime do warm saline gargle and you can take medicine like Allegra or Azithromycin by consulting with local doctor .
Hope this will help you
