It is recommended to take acetaminophen or ibuprofen for throat pain and difficulty swallowing. Throat lozenges like Halls or Fisherman's Friend can help soothe irritation. Drink plenty of fluids, either cold or hot, based on your preference. If the condition persists or worsens after a week, or if you are unable to drink fluids, it is best to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
