Hi. A co-worker is pretty sure she has strep throat because she is in agony and has those little white spots in back of the throat. She has a doctor s appointment tomorrow morning. Until then, I have heard that eating hot foods that make you sweat is good to get rid on infection (ie. garlic cloves, cayenne pepper, hot chicken soup, etc) but then should she be having cold stuff (ie. popsicles, gatoraid, etc) to reduce the fever? I dont wanna steer her wrong...
