I am assuming it's not strep because I
went to the doctor today and they never
called back with the results. It hasnt
gotten worse, it midly improved a few days
ago but now I just woke up and the right
side of my throat kills when I swallow. I
just took three tylenol and ate ice cream.
I do smoke and I know that it is a major
irritant but usually I shake it within a
few days. I have three kids and viruses
love us in the winter. Nobody else inthe
family has had a sore throat or has one
either. I'm worried that something else
is wrong.
smoking could affect it, im not sure, i
get sore throats on and off. specially in
the morning, and this is the season for
germs , my kids keep getting colds on and
off and my husband. so far im still in
good health for the moment lol Id say if
its persistant id get it checked by a dr
you neverknow what it could be . do u have
a fever or just the sore throat? My dr
didnt care when i had a sore throat when i
wentbecause i didnt have a fever , they
didnt even test for strep or give me
anything to help it at all. hopefully u
got a better dr then i lol

it is probably from smoking. If you are
very worried about it you should go see a
doctor.
