A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doctor can check: New throat pain can be strep throat (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza (antivirals may be 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 (to see if a prescription is needed). Having chills and lots of fatigue would suggest a flu-like illness or strep throat.
