Why would my throat now hurt on the other side after i've finished 5 day antibiotics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Throat pain: Throat pain after completion of antibiotics could just be post infectious inflammation or possibly persistent infection so if symptoms worsen may need to be seen by infectious disease physician for further work up
