Patient Question
Hello Doctor,
I have a dry cough and a sore throat, but no chest tightness or fever. Should I take acetaminophen to help with the pain, or is there something else I should do?

Yes, acetaminophen can be a good option for relieving acute symptoms like pain. In addition, I recommend increasing your water intake and consuming more fruits and vegetables. Hot drinks, such as tea with honey, may also help soothe your throat.
