Excessive Pain and Swelling in Throat
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?
