A member asked:
What to do if i have sinusitis and my tonsils feel really itchy and sore and look like this. is it strep?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diagnosis: How do you know if you have a sinus infection? Was a CAT scan performed? You can have a rapid Strep test or a regular throat culture to document if you have a bacterial infection. Remember, the great majority of upper respiratory tract infections are caused by viruses.
