how would a doctor find out?
i have a REALLY unpromising sore throat. and it wont go away.
but i also enjoy a horrible headache. i cant decide which is worse.
what can i do very soon. till i go to the doc?
will anything cause this better?What happen if i reflect on i own strep?
tylenol will perhaps give a hand the headache, keeping quiet and within a dim room will also help. The doctor will examine your throat using a toungue blade and a oil lamp, if it shows the signs of strep, he will swab the back of your throat and transport it to a lab for culture. He may or may not start you on an antibiotic before he get the culture back, depending on your other symptoms.
you requirement to get a throat culture asap because this can head to rheumatic fever= heart problems.
you can try to gargle with saline water and/or suck on some cough drops until you can carry to the doc. but get to the doc ASAP! advil will hold the pain out of your throat too.
