    while you're working a temp bypass to the physician. you've gotten Strep throat and could want antibiotics to recover from it. If throat is in simple terms sore supply it some days and gargle with salt water and suck on a medicated throat lozenge like a sucrets for the discomfort.

    If you have white spots on the back of your throat, you most likely have strep. Don't think it will go away on its own: The strep bacteria travel into organs of your body (kidneys, etc), and can lead to real problems when you get older, like needing an organ transplant. You need to get antibiotics, and need to take the full course of that medication, to be sure.

    You should still go to a doctor and have it checked out. It could be a mild case of stress. Strep can hurt your heart! Don't delay..
