i had this too and its SO annoying! i kno EXACTLY how u feel. but not to worry, just use coughdrops. eat ice cream or drink hot chocolate/tea. it takes a few days to get rid of. you mite wanna see ur doctor if it doesnt go away soon.

definitely go see your doctor. you might have strep throat. look into the mirror and open your mouth to see if you have a white substance on the sides of your mouth near the back. if you do, it could be strep bacteria. your doctor can conclude this with a simple swab test that takes a few mintues. and dont worry, if it is strep, it will probably start going away in a day or two with medication.

Does sound like swollen glands - perhaps an infection. Try a pain killer like paracetamol or ibuprofen, drink lots of fluids and see your GP if it's not better in a day or two

Sounds like tonsillitis, I get it too sometimes. Suck on some ice cubes, eat some honey, gargle with some antibacterial mouthwash (Oraldene's really good), take ibuprofen to reduce the inflammation, and if it's not better on Monday, go see your GP, as it might take antibiotics to shift it.
Don't worry, it'll be well gone by Xmas!

When you take your vitamins try to drink a whole glass of liquid, milk or water and see if that helps. If the pain in your esophagus persists you should see your doctor. Acid reflux is nothing to mess around with.

You need to visit an Ear, Nose & Throat dr. He has the equipment to look down your throat (without choking you) and see what it is.

its probably just an ordinary throat cold. take medicine. If not a cold, then most likely a strep throat

consult ur doctor before it is too late.
dont just take it lightly coz its does not seem
to be coz of normal cough.
it may lead to a permanent troath problem and can effecct ur voice if u dont take any quick action
tak care

Do you have a cold? Go see a doctor. Maybe you need your tonsils checked.

Could be a problem with your Eustachian tube, go see your doctor for advice.
