Sore throat and throat pain

2020-04-19 05:53:58
Hi, I have been having sore throat since past 2 days causing discomfort. I had a similar pattern couple of weeks earlier which got healed by gargling with Betadine and has now started again. Minimal amount of cough, at times runny nose, but no fever. Should I be worried given the current situation?

If you are worried about COVID, let me tell you that your symptoms are less likely of the disease unless you were in close contact with COVID patient. Just continue with the warm salt water gargles. However of the problem persists beyond 3 days, you will require a formal/online consultation for proper diagnosis and treatment. Thanks
