I've had sore throat for almost 3 months

2017-10-01 10:18:11
The doctors here diagnosed chr. pharyngitis. I took antibiotics and anti-allergics too. I also took some ibuprofen to reduce swelling but it swelled back again when i stopped. My right ear pains slightly sometimes maybe due to the tonsils. I have gastritis problem so maybe it could be LPR or GERD. I am a singer and haven't been able to sing for two month now. I feel like crying . Please help me. I've been to 3 doctors already but none helped.

GERD may affect vocal folds..may cause congestion in the arytenoids.. better to get Fibreoptic laryngoscopy for proper assessment of the voice box.. treated accordingly..
