A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doctor can evaluate: Swollen lymph nodes in the neck, along with a sore throat, can be strep throat. Many doctors can test a throat swab for strep throat in 5 minutes. Other causes of such symptoms include cold and flu viruses, pollen allergies, stomach acid reflux, etc... If it turns out to be strep throat, antibiotics such as amoxicillin are the usual treatment. Cold viruses typically go away in about 5-15 days.
