What Is Acute Pharyngitis?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
5. Headache
If you have a sore throat, there is also a chance that you will develop a headache as well. Not everybody will develop a headache and, for those that do, the severity of the symptom will vary. If the headache is too painful to bear, some paracetamol should be able to at least help take the edge off.
For more severe headaches, you can consider stronger painkillers, but make sure that you are careful. This is especially the case if the painkillers you are using might cause an addiction. If the headache is particularly painful then you should arrange to speak with a medical professional.
