A member asked:

I was outside for many hours in the cold air now my throat and chest are bothering me it feels as though i'm still breathing cold air?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

If symptoms tomorrow: If throat discomfort remains tomorrow, one can call it a sore throat. Throat pain can be from strep throat infection (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza (antibiotics usually not used), or from some other cause such as allergies or irritants. Usually, a person sees a doctor if the sore throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly (mainly to check for strep throat).
