Just another sore throat…or strep?
Asha Jain, MD While unpleasant, viral sore throats usually clear up on their own. But if you have a sore throat and a fever without other cold symptoms, you may have strep throat. Strep throat is caused by an infection from certain streptococcus bacteria. This means that you will need an antibiotic. Strep throat usually is spread by coughing or sneezing. Anyone can get strep throat, but it is most common in children ages 5 to 15.
Signs of strep
Besides a sore throat and fever, strep throat can cause other symptoms, including:
  • headache
  • swollen neck glands
  • chills, body aches, upset stomach and vomiting—particularly in children.
If your sore throat is severe or lasts more than five to seven days, see your doctor. Strep is sometimes tough to detect, so your doctor may do a throat culture or other tests.
To soothe strep throat
  • Finish your medicine to avoid complications. If not properly treated, strep can harm heart valves and kidneys and cause other problems.

Sore Throat
Sore throats are an acute inflammation of the mucous membrane of the lower pharynx. Tonsils and the soft palate may also be inflamed. The main indication of a sore throat is pain when swallowing and sometimes a burning sensation and a tightness in the throat. Secretions may be discharged from the mucous membrane or the throat may be very dry.
Causes
Catching a cold is the most prevalent cause for sore throats, but they may also be the manifestation of other diseases. Breathing through the mouth, allergies and/or pollen in the air are other possibilities.
Remedies
Folk
Aloe vera juice Gargle with aloe vera juice two times daily. Apple cider vinegar (ACV) According to Dr. Jarvis in his classic Folk Medicine, the remedy to use to get rid of a sore throat is to gargle with ACV. The acidity should kill the bacteria on contact. Mix one teaspoon to 2 tablespoons in a glass of water. You can mix it as strong as you can stand it. Gargle one mouthful every hour, swallowing afterward. Repeat twice each time. This treatment can cure a streptococcic sore throat in 24 hours. The acid in the ACV is very helpful in soothing and minimizing the sore throat, and, if you swallow it, the extra potassium is also beneficial. • Combine one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar, one teaspoon of cayenne pepper and three tablespoons of clover honey in a glass of warm water. Gargle as often as necessary.

Sore Throat
While most parents are worried about strep throat when their child has a throat infection, their are also many viruses that cause infections that look very similar to strep. If your child has a sore throat with fever and a red, swollen throat or tonsils with white pus on them, then he should be seen by his physician so that he can be tested for strep throat. If the tests for strep are negative, then your child's throat infection is caused by a virus and antibiotics will not work. Viral infections of the throat usually improve in two to three days without treatment.
  • Strep throat : caused by the bacteria group A streptococci. It is most common in children over three years old and begins with a fever, a red, swollen throat and tonsils that can have a white coating of pus, swollen glands, decreased appetite and energy level. If strep throat is suspected as the cause of tonsillitis in your child, your doctor will do a throat swab to confirm that there is infection with strep bacteria. This infection is easily treated with antibiotics, usually penicillin. Your child will no longer be contagious after being on an antibiotic for twenty four hours. It is important to take a complete course of antibiotics to prevent your child from getting rheumatic fever.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
Sore throats are painful, but usually clear up in a few days unless there is a more serious problem.
Causes
Infection with viruses, bacteria, or a fungus can cause a sore throat, as can allergies or irritation from smoking, alcohol use, or chemical fumes.
Signs/Symptoms
Typical symptoms include pain, swelling, redness, and a tickle or lump in the throat, a cough, and swollen glands in the neck. You may have a fever or headache. People with a really bad sore throat may drool or have trouble swallowing and talking.
Care
If the doctor suspects a bacterial infection, you may receive antibiotics. To relieve symptoms, follow the instructions below.
WHAT YOU SHOULD DO
  • Gargle with mouthwash or warm salt water (1 teaspoon salt in 1 cup water) several times a day. DO NOT SWALLOW the mouthwash or salt water.
  • Sucking on throat lozenges or hard candy may ease the pain. You also can take over-the-counter medications, such as acetaminophen and ibuprofen, and use a nonprescription antiseptic throat spray. Take all medicines exactly as directed.

Sore Throat
A sore throat normally goes after a few days. Treatment can ease the symptoms. See a doctor if symptoms are severe or persist.
Sore throat (pharyngitis) is very common. It is usually caused by a virus infection. Soreness in the throat may be the only symptom. In addition, you may also have a hoarse voice, mild cough, fever, headache, feel sick, feel tired, and the glands in your neck may swell. It may be painful to swallow. Symptoms typically get worse over 2-3 days and then gradually go, usually within a week. You may also develop a sore throat if you have a cold or flu-like illness. Tonsillitis is an infection of the tonsils at the back of the mouth. Symptoms are similar to a sore throat, but may be more severe. In particular, fever and generally feeling unwell tend to be worse. You may have some pus on the enlarged red tonsils. What is the treatment for sore throat and tonsillitis?
  • Not treating is an option as many throat infections are mild and soon get better.
  • Have plenty to drink. It is tempting not to drink much if swallowing is painful. This may lead to mild dehydration, particularly if you also have a fever. Mild dehydration can make headaches and tiredness much worse.

SORE THROAT
Virtually every child and adult gets a sore throat once or twice a year. What should you do when this happens? Could it be strep throat? How can you tell? Should you go to the doctor? Should you just call your doctor and ask for medicine over the phone? Here is the Dr. Sears guide to diagnosing and treating sore throats in children.
CAUSES OF SORE THROAT
  • Viruses. By far, the most common cause of sore throat is any one of a large number of viruses, none of which are treatable with antibiotics. These viruses can cause high fever and very painful sore throat. They can feel just as bad or worse as strep throat.
  • Colds and coughs. The common cold virus can cause a sore throat in addition to its many other symptoms. Coughing can also irritate the throat, and so can post-nasal drip from a cold.
  • Strep throat. This is caused by the strep bacteria, and is treated with antibiotics.
  • Coxsackie virus (hand, foot, and mouth disease). This is a virus that causes high fever and painful canker sores on the throat, cheeks, gums, or lips. Click on mouth sores for more info on this.
