Q: very sore neck and painful to swallow throat. no white patches in the back. congestion, fatigue and chills. negative for flu covid and strep last week but i havent gotten any better a week later?

: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. A week is longer than it would take for common cold to resolve. It would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!
