ongoing sore throat ans headaches

[haleek]

I wake up in the morning & feel fine/normal then if i have a hectic day or talk too much i get a sore throat & sometimes a headache. I feel the worst at night then il go to bed & wakeup fine again- & then it happens all over again!! I have had strep throat a few times & had antibiotics which worked after a while & this can feel like that but this goes away in the morning- its been going on for months & no1 can tell me whats going on!!

Thankyou so much for taking the time to post a response. Most of the time that i get the sore throat the headache comes with it. I can go a few days with nothing then all of a sudden the sore throat comes back- do you think this is a viral thing or an infection?

Hi,
How are you? What other symptoms are present? Recurrent sore throat may warrant further evaluation while headache attacks in the afternoon may be associated with primary headaches such as tension headache. Gastrointestinal issues such as laryngopharyngeal reflux or esophagitis may also be ruled out by your doctor and additional diagnostic tests may be requested. Take care and do keep us posted.
