A member asked:
I have a really bad scratchy throat and bad congestion, so what can i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your doctor!: This is the kind of stuff doctors are really good at treating. The sore throat may well be controllable by gargling with warm water mixed with a bit of honey and lemon juice, but the congestion may require somewhat more aggressive treatment.
