A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dr. can check throat: 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. A "swollen" throat should be checked sooner to be sure there is still plenty of room to breathe and swallow.
