I had a severe soar throat problem last week which was brought down by antibiotics...i have been following amoxicillin course since 4 days ago and until yesterday, the pain was gone...but last night was very cold and I was outside without a sweater for a couple of hours. today, the throat pain came back...although milder than last time as of now. is it cuz of the cold or a more severe infection???

Hi Ab, It's from going out in the cold. You need to stay inside until your throat is completely healed. Buy some of that throat spray,and spray you throat with it. That stuff works great.

Sore throat is usually due to a viral infection. Gargling with warm salty water or mouthwash can reduce the pain and inconvenience. You can find some good home remedies at http://ailments.in/sorethroat.html

I would be willing to bet that you are still using the same toothbrush? After a cold or sickness of any kind I would replace my toothbrushes to prevent a come-back of a cold. It's just a guess though, it could also be a number of other things too but changing your toothbrush would narrow the guessing a bit.

It could have been brought on by being in the cold. If it starts to hurt more, or not get better in a day or two-please go back to your dr. about it. Take care.
