Hello,

I recommend getting a throat swab for culture (both bacterial and viral cultures). Get a CBC with a peripheral smear. In addition, a full history is needed, including recent travel and sexual history.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bonnie Berger-Durnbaugh,
