Ive had a sore throat for a few weeks now....very on and off. Got it first when i got really sick from the cold weather. Its more of a throat swollen thing than a scratchy dry throat. Its usually on one side or the other, and ibprofuen always makes it go away....but it will always come back too. Do you think i should see a Dr about it? and waht might it be?
 
same here 🙁

i had to get out of training this morning, throat was feeling sore and swollen...i felt faint, and just all round weak! i was doing 1.20's for 100m backstroke!...last week i was doing 1:10's!!1 i just couldnt hack it!

i think ive got a continuous case of "freshers" flu..........damn newbie freshmans
 
Probably just a badly mutated Avian Flu, nothing to fret about...unless you consider a horrible ghastly death a bad thing.
 
does your throat look red? your uvula look red? any little white pockets of puss looking stuff?

If so, you might have strep throat and you would definately want to see a doctor.

Oh yeah, when you look at your throat and say Ahhhhh, does your uvula stay in the center or bend to one side or the other? Thats one thing doctors look for when they have you say ahhh.


If you do have strep throat, you need to treat it with antibiotics. If it's not treated, it can spread to your heart and do very bad things.
 
go see a doctor.

if you don't treat strep or whatever it may be in a timely fashion, it can be fatal. it happened to someone i know of. 🙁
 
Could be HIV/ AIDs. Lots of people don't know they have the virus, until they get sick with some other, opportunistic infection. Constant sore throat = lowered immunity?
 
Stop playing tonsil tennis with one night stands! 😉
