Sore throat with swollen glands

8 replies

For the past week I've had a really sore throat and very swollen glands in neck and throat. It is getting a bit better each day but it has knocked me for 6. On never ill!

Is this something that is going around? I think I caught it during a flight.

Any advice on getting over it, I'm taking my vitamins and resting.

In fact I'm on day 10 thinking about it.

I have this also as does my husband.
DD has just started to get over a similar thing with a high temp and weird spots all over (not chicken pox or anything else?

My sisters just had this, it was covid. Whatever yours is just take it easy and drink lots of water. I also swear by Echinacea tablets at the first sign of a cold.

I have tested for Covid a few times. But always been negative.

Do you feel like you have a lump in your throat?

My DH has this I think! Although he doesn’t feel ill really. But sore throat and bunged up. He doesn’t think hay fever.

Yes it's horrible and lumpy

I’ve got a huge lump at the front of my throat just under my chin and I’ve got a really sore throat and a chesty cough. Had it since just before Easter weekend and I’m getting fed up now!

Sounds awful, I hope it gets better soon for you.

That's a long time!
