bad sore throat...

I have a bad sore throat since three days ago. But i only started to consume medicine the second day. Becauseeeeee i thought as long as i drink more water, it will recover without taking any tablet. But i guess, my inflammation is quite serious. When i woke up the day before yesterday, i drank a lot of water. U know wat...i can fee a drastic pain in my throat..It was like terkena pisau...So painful!
I cannot tahan ady then i went to the pharmacy before i went to dabao my lunch. I told the pharmacist wat happened to my throat. She talked like a bullet train and i have to take some time in order to get her meaning. Am i slow or she speaks fast? hahaha...
She said i do not need to take anti-biotic. She recommended me to take tow type of anti-inflammation tablets. And i bought honey as well. I drank a lot of honey tat day. But it seemed like didn't soothe my throat.
But i cannot see the difference although i've taken it for consecutive two days! And i can even feel that it became serious today! Then i went to buy the strepsils and 'pei pa go' just now.
Hopefully, it will recover sooooon... I dun like to get sick!Especially sore throat.
I couldn't take a lot of foods when i have sore throat because i dun wan to deteriorate the pain.

p/s: thanks bb for giving me a lozenge yesterday.
