Can you have two different colds at the same time?
It is possible to have both a cold and strep throat, although they are not caused by the same thing. You've simply caught two different infections. A sore throat during a cold is often caused by post-nasal drip going down the back your throat and irritating it. However, any time you have a persistent sore throat, you should have it checked out. If you have strep throat, make sure you consistently take your antibiotics (finish the prescription!), and if you have any cold sores (or any other cuts anywhere else on your body)- be sure to take especially good care of them. Strep A - the bacteria which causes strep throat, is also responsible for causing nectrotizing fascitis, or flesh-eating disease.
