Test neg but I feel like I have razor blades in my throat...I don't remember having a sore throat like this ever...

[–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago

Sore throats are awful. It's probably worth getting it checked out in case it is tonsilitis or an infection that can be treated by antibiotics.

I'd also get some anaesthetic lozenges which can help a bit - might be worth going to a proper pharmacy that has staff that can advise you on the best options.

When i had the covid sore throat i found that a mix of lozenges and anesthetic Difflam spray to be the best help

Had a horrible sore throat two months ago. I got some amount of relief from the medicated lozenges plus paracetamol plus voltaren. Hope it passed quickly for you 🙏
