    This sore throat really sucks. It seems to have progressed to my ear now, so razor blades in my ear and my throat when I swallow. Still negative though.

    Edit. Thanks all, doctors appointment tomorrow morning sorted.

      Anecdote, Betadine throat drops will cause vomit, avoid. Gargling dissolved aspirin might help.

      Difflam have a throat numbing spray you can pick up just over the counter. If you’re an asthmatic of having issues breathing it’s not good for you though.

      Get that checked at the doctor’s if you haven’t already, last thing you want is an infection wreaking unchecked havoc

      Gargle in salt water - 10% solution - might help a bit. But best to go see doctor - might be anything from tonsillitis to an abcess. Does sound like an infection - at least to me.
