Question: My wife has had a soar throat for over a month. She initially thought it was a sinus infection and went in. She was prescribed amoxicillin even though it was probably viral, but that didn't change the condition of her soar throat. She was told that if it was strep throat the amoxicllin would have helped and that strep would have been gone after a month. Some days are worse than others. Sometimes just breathing and having air pass over her throat hurts. Sometimes her throat is swollen and soar to the touch on the surface of the skin below the chin in the neck area. She has occasional congestion, but not significant. She doesn't have any other significant issues. No spots in the back of the throat. No fever, has a decent amount of energy. Body isn't sore. Not a lot coming out of her nose. She coughs occasionally. She's a mother of 3. Eats healthy. Works out regularly but not for a month now. She doesn't take any pills or medication. She has not changed anything recently in her life such as shampoos or perfumes. We live in Florida and have lived here for 6 years with no issues. She doesn't have any allergies. No major medical or chronic issues. She does not drink or smoke, ever. I'm the only guy she's been with. Just trying to give you everything I can think of. She's frustrated. When we look stuff up the first thing she finds with a chronic soar throat is discussion of throat cancer. We're looking for more than the standard recommendations as I fee we have covered our basis.
