Not sure, but: Without examination and possibly lab test - can't be sure - but, I'm glad the saline gargle helped. Continue doing it for awhile and if you still feel better, it was just a mild irritation like one that people do get over all the time. The saline is close to our natural pH and really soothes well. Good for you! Take care.
