I don't know if my soar throat is serious or not?!
Question: I don't know if my soar throat is serious or not?
Answers:
It could be an infection. It's best to see a doctor so they can determine if you need medication for your sore throat and sinus problems. In the mean time you can gargle with some warm salt water. I've had a sore throat all week, went to the doctor and got some meds, kept taking OTC pain reliver and I'm finally feeling better. Hope you feel better soon.
It's probably a good idea to get it checked out, as you could have strep throat. Untreated strep can lead to other problems, including infection that can damage your heart, I believe. So you're best off to get it checked. (And, by the way, it is "sore", not "soar" because it isn't flying.)
Do you have allergies? It's allergy season and it may be that. If you are running a fever and have an earache with it, you should go to the doctor to get tested for strep.
