Dr. can check throat: New throat pain can be from a strep throat infection (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza (antibiotics usually not used), or from some other cause such as allergies or irritants. Usually, a person sees the doctor if the sore throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly (mainly to check for strep throat). A couple days of throat lozenges and Tylenol (acetaminophen) can decrease throat pain.

Get seen for strep.: A sore throat with or without fever,can be due to strep throat. Get checked to be sure. If you have strep throat you need antibiotics to avoid possibly serious complications, like rheumatic heart disease.
