Strep Throat Symptoms
A sore throat may indicate various conditions like the flu or allergies, but it’s frequently due to a contagious infection known as strep throat. Symptoms include:
Body aches
Hoarseness
Fatigue
Fever
Painful, swollen throat
Swollen lymph nodes
Red spots, called petechiae, on the roof of the mouth
White patches or streaks of pus on the tonsils
In children, strep throat can also lead to symptoms like belly aches and headaches, which are less common in adults.
The definitive way to distinguish strep throat from a sore throat caused by other conditions is through a strep throat test. Only a healthcare professional can assess your symptoms, conduct a strep test, and decide the most appropriate treatment plan.
