Answers:
How long have you had the sore throat!? If it's been more than a few days, and you've had other symptoms, go see a doctor!.

Use a flashlight to shine into your mouth, and look at the back of your mouth/throat!. if it's very very red, tell your parents you need to see a doctor as you probably have strep throat!. It's not serious, but you'll need anti-biotics and should stay home for a few days as it's rather contagious!.

Hot soup, or tea with lemon can help a sore throat!. If you can get to a drug store, get some Chloroseptic spray and/or lozenges!. This stuff will help numb your throat for a while!.

If the sore throat persists for more than 3 days without getting better, or it gets worse, or you start running a fever - go see a doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Okay, this may or may not be serious, depending on whether or not you are sexually active!. If you have been sexually active, GET TO A DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY!

If not, then, gargle with some warm salt water and suck on a peppermint and then try some ibuprofen for the headache!. If that doesn't work, then it is time to head for the doctor!. If you have a fever, you really need some sort of anti-biotic prescribed by the health care provider!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
