How to cure strep throat or make it not hurt as much?
NO, strep throat is not a virus, it is caused by bacteria, and yes, you need to go to the doctor and he will prescribe you antibiotics. As for your throat pain, when I had a severe case of strep, the doctor prescribed me Vicodin, and that helped with my swollen glands and throat pain. But if the Tylenol is making you sick, *(the Vicodin would to, then)then stop taking it, especially if your taking it on an empty stomach after vomiting. It sounds like you’ve got a serious case of strep, so go to the doctor asap-you need to begin treatment, because untreated strep throat can lead to other infections.
