Sore Throat help?
Hi everyone. It started with feeling a lump sensation in the throat. And pulsating in right ear. Then a feeling of rawness in the throat. Then soreness on right side of throat. Now, at night and in the morning my throat is extremely sore- every swallow is very painful. During the day it gets better. Hot drinks help a little bit. Cold drinks stop up my ears. Also some mucous in throat in morning and night.Also had some dizziness, loss of appetite, etc. Took Gels. and I think it helped, but not with the throat. When I was little, I had ear infections every winter. I just moved to a city with cold ocean wind. And I think that may have caused this. Or just a cold or flu.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
I just saw a post below suggesting Belladonna for throat infections. But this remedy is indicated for sudden onset of symptoms. Mine have been arriving gradually. So I don't know... The last three days I've been trying to look up my symptoms, and there are so many potential remedies that I just get overwhelmed. But I guess I'll try belladonna and see...

Treating the current Throat Virus

Here in Sri Lanka where I live I find that almost everyone seems to be suffering from a sore throat which sometimes ends in hospitalization in the case of some who do not treat it. At first I thought that it was a virus that had got a foot hold in Sri Lanka but to my surprise I discovered that it is rampant today in India, England, Malaysia and is spreading fast in other parts of the world.
This virus starts with a slight irritation of the throat with a roughness in the voice and if it is not treated at this early stage it develops into a hoarse throat with inability to swallow and later a barking cough accompanied with a temperature.
I have used Belladonna 30c successfully to treat this ailment and the dosage is 2 pellets taken every 3 hours. The virus is usually stopped in its tracks in under 24 hours but it is important that the remedy is continued on the day after relief is noticed, as it will re-establish itself again. The dosage for the day after relief is felt is 3 times daily.
Cases have been reported where this virus has struck the patient again in about a week after the first attack has been successfully overcome, and the same therapy should be followed. I have also advised those who were attacked by this virus to use just 2 pellets Bell 30c after they are well before retiring at night as a prophylactic to prevent the virus attacking again and again which this unusual virus seems to be capable of doing.
It is important to commence treatment with Bell 30c as early as possible when one is first aware of the discomfort in the throat as it will abort the virus more effectively than after it is fully established in the throat.
Gargling in warm salt water before retiring for the night is also recommended as a prophylactic.
