  1. H - The only way to know if you have strep throat is to get it tested at a doctor's office. Sorry, but you can't self diagnose.

    Why are you taking Nyquil? You sound like a young child and shouldn't really be taking that strong stuff considering it's mostly alcohol.

    If your mother is taking care of you...and I'm hoping she is...then she should be giving you warm broth, water, keeping you hydrating and checking for fever. Otherwise, you should go to the doctor.
    It's not uncommon for sore throats and infections to last a couple days.

    Make sure you do salt water gargles (get warm/hot water, dilute salt into it to make it very salty and gargle...do not swallow). This cleanses the area of bacteria and keeps it clean.

    And you should be talking to your mother or doctor about this.

    We are not medically trained and neither is the internet. A forum isn't where you go to get a diagnosis or medical care.
