I had throat irritation and dryness from Saturday. Hence took AIM 500 as prescribed by doctor for 5 days (3 days over). She said it's throat infection. Today I am feeling little chest and throat heaviness. Apart from that no cold, cough and fever. Even I don't have travel history. Is this common cold symptoms. I am worried bit because of coronavirus. Please suggest if any test required or should I wait for couple of days. Thanks a lot.

Now no need to worry but it may be common flu you should do gargling for 3 days and drink warm water and avoid cold things.

Yes it’s throat infection. 1. Do saline gargles daily.
2. Whenever possible do steam inhalation also.
3. Cover your nose and mouth with hanky for at least 30 sec when you go in dusty areas also when you go in and out of AC. As our nose is the most sensitive part of our body, When there is temperature difference between two rooms or inside n outside, then if we not protect our nose, it gets affected.
4. Drink Hot Liquids --Hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably inflamed membranes that line your nose and throat.
Homeopathic treatment has very encouraging results and gives relief in long term
