Red bumps?!
Question: Today while I was at work, my throat started getting really sore and I got a headache. I was thinking it was strep, but when I looked in the back of my throat, all I could see were a few red bumps. They look pretty nasty, so I figured they might be strep, but usually when I have strep, it's more like white patches than bumps. So I was just wondering if red bumps can also be a symptom of strep throat?
I work in a drug store, so it's not very unlikely that I could have caught it while there.

If the red bumps are not some thing usual for you when you get the strep throat then you should see a doctor... it could be some thing different all together
You should ask your boyfriend who he's been with recently. Just kidding. Really, ask the pharmacist whom you work with. There's a good chance he can recommend something. I couldn't resist. Sorry :)
hmmmm.... i wonder, you may have an infection, or it might just be very VERY dry. its never happened to me though, so, im sorry, i have to go! bye!
