Hello, my throat feels dry after eating and speaking continuously. Sometimes breathlessness as well and difficulty in swallowing. I was diagnosed with gastritis a month ago. How can I cure the condition. Also how much does food and sleep affect, as I have been sleeping less and eating outside food.

"For mild sore throat, try with salt water gargles using little warm water, taking care not to use too hot water, and take pain killer if required. If you are not ok in 1-2 days, consult back. Try sending picture of your throat. If you have fever, you may need additional medicines as well. If symptoms are severe, please consult an ENT Doctor immediately. Please see that it may be more beneficial if you add honey and salt to the gargle solution. Add 1 spoon of honey and half spoon of salt to half glass of water to make gargle solution. Also, if you are s smoker, you need to quit smoking and alcohol.
