A member asked:
Do i have strep throat if i have red welps on the back of my throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is likely: Most of the time with strep throat there is whitish or yellow exudates, or redness and small red spots on the soft palate, and swollen glands in neck, the only way to confirm is by doing a throat culture or in office quick strep teast.
