Hi,

Welcome to our portal

Only this syrup and gargling will not help you completely, it say some kind of throat infection maybe acute pharyngitis or tonsillitis and you need antibiotics for that otherwise this may progress. Are you allergic to any particular medicines, so that I will prescribe you some medication?

Hi,

Welcome back to our portal.

Yes, gastric problem do cause throat issues but most likely they are on a chronic basis. In this acute condition, it is most likely because of your throat infection which is very common in this changing weather. Avoid intake of any cold food, cold drinks, ice cream, air conditioner, etc. Try to sit in the sunlight daily for few hours. Drink lots of lukewarm water, juice and maintain proper hydration.
