If you dont get better in about 2 days, go to the doctor....and get alot of sleep [ CraziForRey619's advice column | Ask CraziForRey619 A Question ]

Drink tea with honey. AVIOD MILK AT ALL COSTS!!! I hope I helped! ♥ good luck [ Erinn_the_bamf's advice column | Ask Erinn_the_bamf A Question ]

If it doesnt go away, the only other option is to visit a doctor. He or she can give you some medication to heal what may be strep throat. Dont share drinks with anyone for awhile.
Karen answered Tuesday February 15 2005, 2:50 pm: I have to agree with jbdreamer and MFS; it sounds like you possibly have strep throat. You need to go to a doctor to get some antibiotics and get tested if you do have it. Just drink lots of water and drinking tea with honey will help clear up your throat a little bit and you will have a clearer voice. That spit is also a sign that you could have strep throat. Hope I helped :)

ballerina04 answered Tuesday February 15 2005, 2:40 pm: I feel the exact same way! I suggest going to the doctor.. they'll give you medicine. For now, get lots of rest and try some cough/throat drops. Feel better soon! If you need anything else, just send me something. ♥ Kristen [ ballerina04's advice column | Ask ballerina04 A Question ]
MFS answered Tuesday February 15 2005, 12:51 pm: ditto what the Dreamer said... go see a doctor. Especially since you have discharge and a fever - this time of year is ripe for strep to spread rapidly as the temperature bobs up and down. [ MFS's advice column | Ask MFS A Question ]
jbdreamer answered Tuesday February 15 2005, 12:43 pm: Sounds like Strep Throat. You need antibiotics, go see your doctor. Try drinking warm tea with honey to sooth. Don't drink anything too hot or cold. [ jbdreamer's advice column | Ask jbdreamer A Question ]
