It is very possible that your medications, especially Doxycycline, are contributing to your sore throat and difficulty swallowing. Doxycycline can cause irritation or inflammation in the food pipe (esophagitis) if swallowed with too little water or if you lie down too soon after taking it. To find relief, always take your tablets with a full glass of water and remain upright for at least 30 minutes afterward. Sipping warm liquids can also help soothe the throat. Please contact your doctor promptly to evaluate this, as they may need to adjust your medications to ensure you can swallow safely and comfortably.
