Mononucleosis: Mono is a common problem in adolescents. Called the kissing disease. It is due to a virus called Epstein Barr. Causes prolonged sore throat, fatigue and fever. See a doctor to get blood tests to rule this out. Can gargle with Listerine to help kill bacteria and viruses in the throat. Gargle and spit it out when it burns. Nasty stuff but works well. Take acetaminophen for throat pain.
