Why does the top back of my throat hurt when i swallow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Throat: You probably have post nasal drip which can be easily treated with some Flonase over the counter. If it is associated with fever and chills, it could be an infection (viral or bacterial). Take some Motrin or Tylenol for the pain and if it does not improve in the next few days see your pcp or an ent. Good luck and feel better
