Dentist, Dr. Harry Maheshwari's Response

Hello,

As per your query, you are suffering from soreness and pink bumps at the back of the throat which seems to be due to strep throat, viral pharyngitis, and could be acid reflux.

I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper examination. The doctor may do examination with laryngoscope.

The doctor may prescribe antibacterial or antiviral depending upon the diagnosis along with anti-inflammatory and medicine like sucralfate. Do warm saline gargles and eat non spicy and light food. Also, take antacid after every meal.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
