Could this be something more than just a cold? I've had cold symptoms, fever, muscle aches, and sore throat during this week. Now all the symptoms seem to be tapering off (no fever today, not need for a Kleenex, very little coughing) and yet my throat still hurts just as much as it did 4 days ago.
Need I remind you that the longest sore throat I've ever had has been no more than a couple days so this is really unusual.
Has anyone else had one last this long before? Could this be mono or strep throat or something? What's going on...
