A member asked:
I have had a cough the past 5 days, went to the doctor today and he said it was all due to allergies. when i swallow only the left side of my throat hurts, why is that?

Throat soreness: Either the left side of your throat was strained from harsh coughing or you have an infection that most likely is viral and probably related to the cough. If so the soreness should gradually improve. Gargle with warm salt water or suck on lozenges. See MD if sore throat worsens.
