A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lymphadenopathy: You are describing tender lymphadenopathy which is a component of streptococcal pharyngitis. This is common but your symptoms should be improving after three days of antibiotics. If you are not getting better, speak with your doctor - ask him or her if mononucleosis is a possibility.
