Dr. can check throat: Throat symptoms can be from a strep throat infection (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza (antibiotics usually not used), allergies or irritants, sinusitis, etc... Usually, one sees the doctor if the throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly (mainly to check for strep throat and review details to see if influenza, laryngitis, bronchitis, etc., could be present).
