• Should I see a doctor

I have a sore throat on my left side only. It is a stabbing pain when I swallow but only feels scratchy otherwise. I’m only congested on my left side when I wake up! Drainage for the rest of the day. My left ear doesn’t feel like it’s irritated, but could be.

If you have a fever, and white patches on your tonsils, I would go see a doctor to be evaluated for strep. If your tonsils are big and red without patches of white, stay home, take anti-inflammatories and stay hydrated.
