Why do you have white in your throat?
You probably have a throat infection that needs to be checked by an ENT doctor or even a general doctor. It could range from development of oral yeast to bacterial infections: tonsillitis, oral thrush, mononucleosis, strep throat and the likes.
What is the scientific name for strep throat?
The bacterium is called "streptococcal pharyngitis". This is the strain which causes strep throat. There are many other causes for sore throat as well, so be sure and check with your doctor if you have a fever of 101 or higher. Strep throat can only be diagnosed 100 percent by running blood tests, so just because you have a sore throat doesn't mean you have strep. Drink plenty of fluids because fluids help the body rid itself of toxins as well as keep you hydrated and helps to move that mucous out of the body.
Can strep throat be present without white spots on the tonsils and red spots on the tongueif not what else can a severe sore throat without any other flu symptoms be?
Yes a severe sore throat could be strep throat, even without any visible marks or patches on the throat or tongue. I have tested positive for strep throat without any vomiting, stomach problems, or any oral patches to be seen several times.
Can you get strep throat from someone who has been exposed to someone who has strep throat?
Talk to you doctor if you have a fever, or any other symptoms that concern you. You can't get diagnosed here. Strep Throat doesn't appear out of thin air; it is a bacterial infection. Not all bad sore throats are caused by strep. If you have cold symptoms and no fever, it is probably caused by a virus. Strep throat is airborne, meaning that you get it from the tiny droplets that an infected person gives off in sneezes. So a person who doesn't have strep throat cannot possibly give strep to you, no matter what you do. But that doesn't mean that you can't get any number of other things from engaging in oral sexual activity.
Will an antifungal oral suspension cure strep?
No way. It will not cure strep throat. You have to take ten days course of penicillin as per advise of your physician. Otherwise the serious rheumatic fever may fallow after three weeks.
