What Causes Severe Headache,cough And Diarrhea Despite Suffering From Strep Throat?

My 26 year old daughter had a positive strep test yesterday while she was out of town yesterday, but her throat is not hurting at all. The flu test was negative, but her symptoms are more flu-like (Severe headache, aches, cough, diarrhea, fever). She started amoxicillin, cough medicine, aleve cold& sinus, tylenol and she just took Execdrin migraine because her head was hurting so badly. Should she see her local doctor here or let this run its course?

Hi,

She have to complete Amoxicillin full course and throat swab test, both Tylenol and Excedrin have same salts, one can be continued. Yes it's good to check with a local doctor.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
