Hello,

The symptoms that you are facing can be due to viral infection, however it can also be due to sinus infection. You should consult an Oral Physician or an Emergency room and get evaluated.

For now, follow the below treatment plan:
- You can start gargling with specialised mouthwash like Magic Mouthwash to reduce soreness and enlarged taste buds.
- Do warm saline gargles.
- You can also take Vitamin B complex supplements and Vitamin C pellet.
- Take Levocetirizine to reduce itching and burning sensation.
- Take Acetaminophen for aches and rise in temperature.
- Take light meals; drink plenty of water and sufficient rest.

If there is no improvement, consult an Emergency room and get checked.

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

Regards,
Dr. Honey Arora
