Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sore throat with throat pain ,which is due to bacterial infection leading to strep throat. I would suggest you to maintain proper oral hygiene. You should take Diphenhydramine and Dextromethorphan for 4-5 days. You should avoid cold carbonated beverages. You should take you take nasal decongestant sprays, antihistamines and antibiotic combination as infection is present .Do warm saline gargles 3 to 4 times a day. Take ibuprofen one tablet twice daily. Take soft foods to avoid irritation to the throat. Throat lozanges one every 4 hours is helpful. Drink luke warm water throughout the day as it can provide relief. The symptoms can also occur due to condition like sinusitis . I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper checkup which the help of CT scan and get prescribed antibiotics . Taking steam will be helpful.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
