How can i treat a sore throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Find the reason: And then the treatment. A sore throat caused by viral infection — the most common cause — usually lasts five to seven days and doesn't require medical treatment. If your sore throat is caused by a bacterial infection, your doctor will prescribe a course of antibiotics. According to mayo clinic.
