Hi doc, i have a sore throat and i couldn't swallow food for the past two days and i'm always clearing my throat as if there's something stuck on it, what should i do?

Need more info: If you have fever, you should get tested to rule out strep throat and/or Covid-19. It may be a viral infection. You may try gargling with warm salt solution to address the soreness. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to a hospital. Wish you good health!
