I had a cold, my throat still hurts?

Question

Last week I had a cold. I still blow my nose a little in the morning but otherwise I have no other symptoms. I have had a sore throat since then which means almost 2 weeks. It goes away and comes back.

Good morning, ma'am, It can persist for some time after a cold, but if you have no other symptoms and if it diminishes over time, there is no need to worry. Nasal hygiene with saline solution remains the best treatment for this, and I encourage you to drink plenty of fluids, cold or hot, as you prefer. I hope I've been helpful, and I'm available if you have any further questions! Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
