Could it be strep throat again?
I'm on my last day of 10 days of penicillin for strep throat. The last few days my throat has started to hurt again some, but not NEARLY as bad as before the antibiotics! Before I felt like I was swallowing needles and my glands were swollen. That went away after about a day of antibiotics. Now, the last couple of days, I have just one spot on the back of my throat that is sore. It's just sore...not like I'm swallowing needles or anything.
I did realize that I had forgotten to change my toothbrush, which I did this morning. I tried to look at my throat, but the whole back of my throat still looks kinda red and....hard to see if anything specific is wrong. It kind of feels like the gland on that side of my neck might still be swollen too (if I press on my neck on that side, it's sore).
I have one dose of penicillin left to take this morning. Wondering if anyone has any insight. I know I'll just have to wait a few days and see if it goes away and maybe go back to the Dr. if not, but just wondering if anyone else had any thoughts about it.
