Hi thanks for contacting Chat Doctor... Noted you have exposure to cotton. So here you could give cotton induce occupational lung problem... It could be pneumoconiosis... Called business like problem... Chest x-ray and pulmonary function test useful... Just now for throat infection you can take antibiotic and anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor. More water.... Here regular follow up needed. Take care.
