Doctor can evaluate: New throat pain can be strep throat (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza (antivirals such as Tamiflu may be used), or from some other cause such as allergies or irritants. Usually, one sees her doctor if her sore throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly. However, influenza treatment in pregnant women with the flu should be started within 48 hours of getting sick.
