The sore throat is one of the most common health complaints. Classic symptoms include irritation, a ‘burning sensation’ at the back of the throat and pain when swallowing.

When our throat feels dry or uncomfortable, some of us may like to clear it. However, if we clear our throats too often, the friction between the air and the mucous membrane in the airway passages may increase and lead to swelling and inflammation.
