question: I have a cold & sore
throat.No big deal on its own. However,
this morning I found it incredibly hard to
breathe (this was in throat, near voice
box), and it was very noisy while I was
gasping for breath. I do not have a cough,
am not short of breath (apart from the
incident which lasted a couple of
minutes), and my throat is very dry. I was
sleping upright at the time.
Please can you let me know what the
problem was, and anything I should do to
avoid it happening again.

Please... just go to a doctor or a clinic!
They have medicine that can help you get
better.
Take asprin. Asprin reduces swelling. That
might help. It might also
reduce pain. Also, have cough drops.
Thirdly, there are cough medicines that
help clear out the gunk in your throat and
chest; you need to get rid of it.
