Hello,
Your symptoms are suggestive of a throat infection. I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and some tests:
- Complete blood count, PCR, ESR
- ASO titer
- A throat bacterial culture
- Antibiotics may be needed
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
