Hi
Thank you for reaching out at Ask A Doctor .
I have read yourvquery and understood your concern
Since you say you have been having symptoms for couple of days and still suffer with only soar throat ,I would recommend warm salt water gargle 2 to 3 times per day to relieve throat infection. Incase throat irritation persists you could start antibiotic such as tablet erythromycin 250mg twice a day for 5 days.
