A member asked:
How would i know the difference between strep throat and post-nasal drip? it has been a week and my mucus still green, throat very sore and glands tender?

The simplest and most direct approach is a throat culture. Since a rapid strep test may be falsely negative, obtain full throat studies. Subsequently, your doctor will intervene with the appropriate therapy.
