Brief Answer:
I think it is not a streptococcal infection .

Detailed Answer:
dear sir thanks for posting your query to HCM.
As I understand it could be a viral infection or an environmental allergy.
I donot feel it as streptococcal infection as such infection usually present with high temperature ,pain in throat , body ache , malaise, redess of pharynx etc.
however you can do throat swab culture and sensitivity examination ,it will confirm the diagnosis .
presently you can continue with Paracetamol to releive fever and muscle pain and add antihistaminic like cetrizine or loratadine once a day to releive allergic symptoms.
usually such kind of illness releived within 5 to 7 days .
thanks.

Brief Answer:
Could be episode because of release of immune mediator .

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Sometimes episodes of fever with chills occur during viral illness because of release of immune mediator . However you may need to get investigated further by throat swab culture and sensitivity to find out bacterial cause of throat infection, if any .

Brief Answer:
I think you require antibiotic treatment after sensitivity testing .

Detailed Answer:
usually it relieve within 5 to 7 days . but as you are not feeling better you require some antibiotic treatment .I cant prescribe you antibiotics as it should be taken after sensitivity test because earlier you had allergic reaction to them . I suggest you to consult a physician and get investigated so that antibiotics can be started .
presently start multivitamin tablet to boost your immune response .
