Causes of inflamed throat – allergy, infection or thrush?
Hi, my throat and soft palate are very red, I have constant post nasal drip which feels like it burns when it comes down. The inside of my cheek is also a little swollen. There is one spot on my tonsil and has been for a quite a while and my tongue is coated.
I saw one GP who prescribed me antibiotics for suspected Strep Throat, I’m awaiting the results for the swab, but another GP said not to take antibiotics because it was a type of thrush and I should use anti fungal oral solution. So I had a word with the pharmacist and I am taking both. However, my lips are dry and they tingle, I get cold sensations on my tongue and my nose is very itchy, my eyes water a bit too. My salivary glands are also feeling irritated.
Is the cause of my throat and mouth symptoms possibly allergy related or infection related? Could it be related to a cold or to a wisdom tooth?
