Sounds viral: Sounds like a viral illness. Mild bronchitis and laryngitis. Antibiotics are not helpful, and this should eventually run its course. Over the counter cough medicine will help. The burning in the chest comes from mild inflammation of the layers of the lungs. It is called pleurisy. Ibuprofen should help.
