Accepted Answer

Dr. can check throat: New throat pain can be from a strep throat infection (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza (antibiotics usually not used), or from some other cause such as allergies or irritants. Usually, a person sees the doctor if the sore throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly (mainly to check for strep throat). Throat lozenges and Tylenol or Motrin may help decrease symptoms.

Canker sore: Supportive measures should allow that to heal. If pain worsens, or if sores spread your doctor could consider prescription medicines.

Accepted Answer

I : I do not think the swelling is related to your run, but more so to irritation or an abcess, the cause of which cannot be determined over the internet.

Why don't you go see a dentist who can physically see you. Determine what your problem is, and advise you of the proper course of treatment?

Hope this info helps.
