Why Does My Throat Ache Upon Swallowing Food?
My throat hurts so bad. It hurts even more when I swallow my saliva. It also releases phlegm. From time to time, i needed to spit it out. My back hurts and my head. I have 38.8-39 range of fever. I also have hypothyroidism problem. I feel like my mouth is open for the past few days when sleeping and produces a loud snore.
