Sore throat

Question

Sore throat

Asked for Male, 28 Years

From yesterday morning, I have had a sore throat which feels like my throat is burnt because of acidity. Hardly a month ago i visited an ENT doctor for cough which was treated after medication. Two days ago, i consumed some acidic food along with a cold drink for dinner. And since a few days, there has been repair construction of our building which has led to dusty air around us. I guess a combination of these has caused me a sore throat. I have done betadine gargle and am taking antacid. Please suggest a medicine course to treat my sore throat. (Check the attachment, i have uploaded a picture of sore throat). Thank you!
