Anything that will help my throat?
i have got chicken pox and i htink i ahve some spots at the opening of my throat. it's making it hard to swallow and my throat feels like it's closing up. is there anything i can do to make my throat feel better other than take a painkiller?
Answers:
First, i would suggest that you see a doctor to make sure that your airways are clear and you are not in any danger of not being able to breathe.
If your throat is feeling like a sore throat, i would recommend steaming your sinus and throat cavity by heating up a pot of water and adding either some menthol or eucalyptus oil to the boiling water to help with the uncomfortable-ness.
i would do that every 4 hours or as needed, and use a spray such as chloraseptic which has a numbing agent to temporarily numb the back of your throat..
good luck! and welcome to the chicken pox crew :)
