There are 2 main answers without meds. The first is to go heavy on the garlic and onion because of the good stuff in them.
The other is based on the possibility that the doctors might be wrong and is good information even if they are correct.
Drinking enough water and a massage because the muscles are knotted..
Welcome to a learning process about muscles. Read The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies. It teaches about muscles, pain and referred pain and how to fix it.
The best mix of vitamins according to a heart specialist in CA are prenatal.
The thing all vitamins seem low on is the combination of magnesium and potassium (the very thing muscles need) but they can be found in bananas or molasses

Sore throat can be treated by practising Ujjaya pranayam. Besides have gargaling the throat with warm saline water. Dont consume cold things like drinks. Avoid taking allopathic treatment. It will supress the symptoms without curing the disease.

Better consult an ENT surgeon. You can also drink hot milk with turmeric powder twice a day. Homeopathy pills Merc sol in 30 potency will help. Why to consuct unnecessary experiments on your health where yiou cannot see? Consult ENT surgeon.

I agree, strep. Have had it 4 times since December. You need an antibiotic. For now, take ibuprofen and try that chloraseptic spray. It takes the burning pain away.
