Please go to the doc and make sure it's not strep. If strep goes untreated you could be in a world of trouble (not to scare you). I was watching a program where a guy who had strep and never got it treated and ended up with way more issues to deal with than a sore throat. The bacteria in strep is the same as flesh eating disease and the bacteria/virus spread to other parts of his body. Please see a doc.
