Well, to my knowledge, if the symptoms are just written without any proper history of the paitent, they may be catching a cold, eating bitter things cause that, or you have been attacked by foreign bodies (possibly bacteria).

Generally, whatever the case is, I recomend taking some antibiotics. amoxcillin 500mg 2 tablets per day. Wikianswers of course should no be held responsible and does not condone the taking of drugs without prior cosultation of a medical proffessional.
