I have a terrible - and I mean excruciating - sore throat. I am in agony. It was so bad one morning that I was crying with pain
Paracetemol, co-codamol & ibuprofen were not working, so I went to see the Doctor. The doctor said I just had a virus & prescribed stronger co-codamol (30 mg codeine / 500mg paracetemol), which I have been taking with extra-strong ibuprofen.
This seems to take the edge of the pain, but I am still in pain, especially when swallowing. I am at my wit's end.
Is this familiar to anybody? Does anybody have any advice?

Terrible sore throat. Painkillers not much help.
