Chronic sore throat

[Santessa]

Hi, can anyone help please. Out of the blue 3 weeks ago I started with right sided chestpain that was very painful when I breathed. No other symptoms except breathlessness and very lethargic. This got progressively worse. Saw GP who diagnosed viral Pleurisy as chest X-ray normal. Following day I got laryngitis and lost my voice totally and developed chesty cough but no runny nose. No better over next week so I was given anti biotics. I'm now end of week 3. My voice is returning slowly and pain in chest easing, but I still have a terribly sore groggy throat, if anything my throat feels more sore than it was, nothing to see when I look in my throat and my neck glands are not swollen, but it's starting to worry me. I'm still not feeling 100% at all. Any advice please, I'd be very grateful.

I highly recommend Chloroseptic Throat spray, you can buy it over the counter at any pharmacy. I suffer with Faryngitus A LOT and sometimes Laryngitus and swear by this spray.

Hope this helps and you get better soon.

You may have thrush, an inhalor caused fungus.

Thanks for the advice, but definitely not thrush.
