Simple viral infections like the common cold, which can produce body pains in addition to throat discomfort, are frequently the source of hand pain and sore throats. You can ease your discomfort by resting, drinking warm liquids, gargling with salt water, and taking a medication like paracetamol. It's best to contact a doctor to rule out a bacterial infection if you experience a high fever, severe throat pain, swelling, or symptoms that continue longer than a few days.
