Nothing helps my sore throat! Help!
by curious1231980, May 23, 2009 10:10AM
I've had a sore throat for over a week. I took a z-pack from my doctor and nothing seems to be making it go away. The pain has subsided a little bit, but my throat looks veiny with red bumps. I have 1 whitish/greenish looking thing on my tonsil? What could this mean? I don't feel sick otherwise and have never ran a fever? It's making me concerned that this won't go away!

You didn't say what else you tried to make it go away, but a z-pack is not the right thing for every sore throat. I think you need to get to an ENT or get a different antibiotic. The whitish/greenish thing on your tonsil can be cultured to see exactly what is the right medication for it. I definitely think you have an infection of some kind. Good luck.
