Can Sore Throat With Ear Popping & Dizziness Be Symptoms Of Strep Infection?

I had a sore throat for 5 days, and I thought it might just be strep throat, but when the sore throat disappeared, I gained other symptoms such as ear popping whenever I yawn, or blow my nose, headaches, slight dizziness now and then and every morning when I wake, my throat is sore. My nose is always runny and now whenever I blow it, it s always full of blood. I m not sure if this is a cold or not, can someone tell me what it is? (I don t have the regular symptoms of a cold, such as sore joints)
