Regarding pain in throat
I have taken almost 6 doses of the medicines I have mentioned, but very less difference I can find in the pain in throat. Also I'm using betadine for gargles. Do I need to change the medicine as it has shown very little effect till now. The doctor told me severe throat infection. Drinking water also hurts. I'm not sure about what to do. Kindly guide. Thanku in anticipation

You seem to be suffering from acute pharyngo-tonsillitis which is a common type of throat infection. You may need to take intra venous antibiotics if tablets are not working. You may need to take good analgesics continue gargle for few days.

Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
