Viral Pharyngitis Or Strep Throat?
Posted: 02-03-04 23:00pm

Lumps on the back of my tongue. Sore, irritating throat. Painful to swallow. A bit of a runny nose.

Anyone know what this is? Is this viral pharyngitis? Do you think it could be strep throat?

Hi mike c
hope your problem is sorted now.... Just wanted to say that i'm positive it's not strep throat... I've had that twice now and never had a runny nose with it... (this always alerts me that it's a strep throat and not a viral problem) and both times i've had high fevers along with the most incredible sore throat you can imagine! Have never noticed lumps on back of tongue either?
Did you go to the doctor.. I'm curious what he said?
