Phlegm and throat pain from last 3 months, could you pls advise on possible reasons?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to your Dr.: Many things can cause phlegm and throat pain: throat infection, environmental or food allergies, Sinusitis, Gastroesophageal Reflux, and foreign body are just a few. Since it has lasted 3 months and presumably is not improving, you should see your Dr for complete evaluation and treatment. For short term relief, try salt water gargles and saline nasal washes.
