Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat And Swollen Lymph Nodes
I keep getting sore throats with swollen lymph nodes, red and swollen tonsils. Sometimes it s so bad I can t even swallow. I ve never gotten treatment because they go away before I go to the Doctor. Sometimes it s real bad in the morning and then fades away by early afternoon. Does Strep go away on its own?

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to an upper respiratory tract infection.
I recommend using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen.
I recommend using a throat spray.
If the symptoms continue I recommend taking prescription antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
