Strep Throat Picture In Cartoon Does This Look Like A Bad Case Of Strep Throat?

Does this look like a bad case of strep throat? - strep throat picture in cartoon

I had a slight sore throat for a few days, but Wednesday is the night if it makes me sick. The pain was severe neck pain of all, fever, chills, swollen lymph nodes in the neck, so I is spitting blood, and my neck, very painful, it hurts to even open my mouth and speak. Swallow torture. I went to the doctor on Friday and a rapid test for streptococcal antigen was negative, but a throat culture, and I'll get the results Monday. On Saturday evening he had become so bad and very painful, so I called the doctor called and a prescription for amoxicillin. I began this morning. How long does it take before I feel relieved to start? Will I still be sick for Christmas?

Here is a picture of my throat is bad enough:

Hello,

It is tempting, because it could neck (not on the pictures and photos now .... I do not think, pus covered tonsils STREP).

You can take Tylenol for pain (works faster than Alleves or ibuprofen), but you can take with him Alleves or ibuprofen. Just watch your dose and be sure not to exceed a maximum of two drugs.

Tylenol better in basic pain, and faster, the other is an anti-inflammatory med, you will help in the throat, swollen glands, relieve pain even more.

ATTENTION .... Although the two feet to fall, and you can feel cold, it's time for the winter (they do for me, so I forwarning).

Some sore throats ---- usually one of the drinks they do, is a 3-step what --- antihistamines (Benadryl liquid stun), anti-acid (Mallox or Mylanta) and something to neck (eg, lidocaine) . You can use something not on your own ..... LIQUID get some anti-acid, and take a small amount --- less than the normal dose. putHer mouth and swallow slowly --- This neutralizes the pH in the throat, helps to heal the tissue. (and I often had a sore throat, as Evey .... 6 weeks for 15 years that's like me) through it. GET SOME cloraseptic Cepacol spray or aerosol. The Cepacol should be better now --- it is an aerosol. I have not tried the new .... May, but worth a try. Again, keep track of what you, as much or more than ever it takes ..... no doubt about the compatibility, ask the pharmacist.

You can also use salt in 8 ounces of hot water ---, 1 / 2 times or less (which can be easily put into your mouth), at a time ... To you on the back of the throat ... . take a moment and saliva.

---- Buy last 2 toothbrushes. A change tomorrow (day 3 )..... to change when you are out of antibiotics. This will make it again and again.

Good luck, feel better.

ps, may be able to feel better at Christmas, but quietly, do more and see the cold air! SHOuld feel better in one or two days, and the hot chicken broth () natural salt can contribute to their necks to avoid feel better .... Hot and causes thick mucus to food --- May this make you feel bad .... But chicken soup is good.



Ok, I get the message until after both took Advil and Tylenol. Me, I have better luck with Advil Alleves --- because it takes longer, but I have to take 2 of them when he is sick, and one gram (two 500 mg extra strength Tylenol with it when it's bad). But even here Alleves lasts 12 hours, 6 --- Tylenol is good to keep track of doses.

Good luck, feel better.

Sounds like streptococci. You can speed up the next two doses of antibiotics for double-and performance. The documents often start with low doses, and it takes 36 hours to work. The test for streptococcal antigen was negative, and rightly so. The antigen is a nuclear weapon as the heart or kidneys. Try 3 to 4 Advil tablets (600 to 800 mg), all take 6 to 8 hours to help the pain until it produces antibiotics

Sore throat in office is a doctor diagnosed W / culture of the infected area. Antibiotics is required. Consult your doctor.
