Please please help, sore throat problem?!


Question: Please please help, sore throat problem.?
Developed very sore throat but no cold, went to doctor the day after it started and he sent away a throat swab for testing to see if I had strep. That was 2 days a go - no phone call and he said he would call if I had it.
Yesterday, pain lessened and I thought I was all better.
Half-way through today it came back, and tonight I'm in terrible pain with it. I have lost my voice, have trouble swallowing, feel a CONSTANT need to SWALLOW even if I have no liquid in my mouth (and if I don't, I feel like I can't breathe), my throat feels constricted.

Please help...I can't fall asleep. I've tried cepacol spray and lozenges. I had a fever a couple days ago but not right now.

Thank you....will pick best answer....please help.Health Question & Answer
