Throat Pain
I am having throat pain since 4 days. I am drinking hot water and doing salt gargle/betadine gargle but it just gives me 5 mins rest. Throat again starts paining. By hit water I am getting acidic issues. Since yesterday I also felt weakness and food aversion. I am not facing any other symtomps. No breathing problem also but feels like something is blocking the throat. Pls suggest if this is covid or something else.
