If you have strep throat you need to see a doctor for prescription antibiotics. If it is not strep then there are over the counter meds that you can take to soothe your throat- ask the pharmacist for a recommendation. Also hot soup, tea is helpful and using a humidifier or sitting in a steamy room. Feel better.

You either wait it out for about 10 days, or go to the doc for antibiotics that cut the symptoms down to about 48 hours. Chloraseptic can help numb your throat.

If you actually have strep, you need to go on antibiotics. At any rate, you need to be checked by the doctor to rule out strep throat. If you don't have it, drink tea with honey and lemon, use throat lozenges to numb the pain, and get lots of rest. Good luck!
