I cried a lot for 2 days, i strained my vocal chords a lot. and now my throat is scratchy and i have a dry cough, it feels like my throat is sore, what can i do?

Give your voice rest. You may try inhaling water vapor. Any lozenges may help by soothing the throat. If you have fever, get tested for infection like covid or flu. Drink enough water so that your urine is mostly colorless. I pray that the issue that made you cry has been resolved. May God bless you with good health, happiness and prosperity!
