A member asked:
I have a sore throat and headaches just on one side of my head along with my neck hurting do i have strep? i just recently got my tonsils removed.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
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). If tonsillectomy was recent, a patient can check with her surgeon too.
