Dry throat and problem swallowing saliva

2021-02-14 13:38:10
Hello doc, since the past 2 weeks I am having this problem. My throat is so dry and I am unable to swallow my saliva, it hurts so much. I don't have any issues in swallowing food and water, just with saliva. This problem is persistent throughout the day, I don't know what to do. Please help.
