Excessive Pain and Swelling in Throat

2021-06-26 04:28:39
Since two days, I'm having excessive swelling and pain in the throat. I'm unable to swallow anything. And since few days, I'm having dry mouth and throat. Also, I keep getting dry mouth and thick mucous often. I'm gargling with salt water and betadine but no help. What should I do?
