A classic clinical presentation of strept throat in the pediatric population is: fever, malaise, anorexia, headache, nausea, and a throat that is extremely erythematous (red) with characteristic petechiae (red dots) on the soft palate. Nevertheless, it is always an excellent idea to confirm one's clinical exam with a throat culture.
When your throat is sore usaully it looks like and irretated sometimes when you have a case of strep throat blisters form on the throat that can be many colors but most of the time are white. If child's throat is red before jumping to conclutions and taking him or her to the doctor make sure that they are getting plenty of water because sometimes dehidration can result in a sore throat. I have had strep throat many times and if you think that your child has strep throat then be sure to go to the doctor immediatly becasue if not treated in time strep throat can develope into scarlet fever and no one wants that!missy177
Throat cancers can happen anywhere in the mouth, throat, and voice box. It's appearance is such that it clearly looks like something is wrong. It looks very red, irritated, discolored, and diseased.
take a flashlight and look down the person who may have strept throat and see what their throat looks like and if it is red and puffy then it probably is a good chance.... it is almost the same with tonsils but different too!
If you think you're getting Strep Throat, avoid sharing drinks and contact your family Doctor. Strep is very painful and often times will feel like glass in your throat. Other symptoms include swelling and having a very hard time swallowing.
