Sore throat: Firstly, you used the term strep throat. Was this diagnosed by a throat swab performed by a medical professional. If so, then antibiotics are required. But, most sore throat are viral. Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen may help with pain. At home remedies include warm liquids to drink and warm salt water gargles.
