Strep Throat - Few symptoms?
Is It possible to have a few symptoms of strep throat and still mean that you have full-blown strep throat?
From my personal diagnosis, I believe that I have a mild case of strep throat. I had a sore throat for a few days but it seems to have died down now. Throat is still red at the moment. There's phlegm and I have difficulty swallowing (feels as though there's a lump at the back of the throat) Lymph nodes seem to be a little sore but not swollen.
No changes in voice, headaches, nausea or vomiting, fevers or rash.
Skin on fingers was peeling a few weeks back but seems to have recovered now too.
Is this really strep throat? Should I still go to the doctor's and get it checked?
