"I caught a cold and lost my voice?"

If you have a sore throat without any other symptoms such as congestion or runny nose, it is recommended to take acetaminophen (Tylenol) to relieve the pain and irritation. You can also try soothing lozenges like Halls or Fisherman's Friend. Make sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids, either cold or hot. Rest and time will also help in healing your condition. It's always best to consult a healthcare professional if you have any further questions or concerns.
