Firstly you need to stop using Marijuana as it also causes dryness of throat.the cold never causes burning sensation in throat it will only cause throat irritation which improves once your cold comes down. Do warm water gargling and stop intake of Marijuana.take tab Pan D half hour before food in mornings & night ,will take care of burning sensation.
