My husband has been sick for the last couple days. He went to the doctor, they swabbed for strep-thats not it. He has body aches, his throat hurts and he says it feels like theres a ball in his throat, he had a fever but its pretty much gone now. He was having cold sweats and chills and he says that every time he swallows he gets this awful taste in his mouth that kind of tastes like burnt popcorn! What could he have and how can I help him?
Hi, It can be due to dental carries, tonsillitis and infection. Check for complete blood count. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
