stop brufen. with COVID causing sore throats, brufen and whole NSAID family of drugs are dangerous and are CONTRAINDICATED.
take 1 teaspoon honey in tea or green tea or warm milk 3 times daily. if taking warm milk, also add cocoa powder 2 teaspoons.
honey is the World Health Organisation recommended treatment for all throat and nose infections.
cocoa increases immunity

pharyngitis just means throat infection
any upper respiratory infection will have phayngitis

any infection of mouth, nose, throat (pharyngitis OR laryngitis), tonsils is called upper respiratory infection in medicine. it does not need to have respiratory or breathing difficulty.
medical terms are scientific definitions and do not mean the same thing as English words.

annuva is diclofenac, another NSAID, like brufen.
NSAIDs should be avoided
