What Is The Treatment For Throat Pain And Sore Throat?
was hit in the adams apple (with elbow) during basketball game last night. feels like I have a very bad sore throat. I can breathe and talk (though talking hurts). I was told to take tylenol, but that there is nothing else I can do right now. Should I eat, drink, talk? Anything else I can be doing to heal?
You may be suffering from acute pharyngitis. Use salt water gargling thrice a day for five days. Use tablet amoxicillin with clavulinic acid 625 mg twice a day for five days. Drink hot water only. Avoid ice cream and freez water. If no improvement please consult with your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
