Burning throat

Has anyone else experienced a burning sensation by their tonsils with covid, the only way I can describe it is the same type of acidic feeling as being sick but without being sick,

The coughing has been hard but this is horrendous. If you have did you find anything that helped?

I had a very sore throat with covid recently. The best things for me were jakemans menthol sweets, gargling with warm salty water and ice lollies.

I also had a very sore throat. Only lasted a couple of days though. Combined aspirin/paracetamol helped, and strepsils.

I had a horrendous sore throat for a few days followed by the snottiest ever cold I think I’ve experienced in my life, literally went on for 2 weeks.
