Likely a viral: pharyngitis which is more common than strep but rapid strep screens are pretty sensitive. If temperature and pain persist for 72 hours see your doctor.

Sore throat off and on and hurts to swallow upon early hours. Congestion, runny nose. Drainage. HX 4 yrs of tinnitus. I'm getting popping and clicking in my ears now and even when I talk. Could it be from this cold, my tmj or caused by ETD from this?
