Do I have strep throat? My throat only hurts and is red on the side where the blister is and Im getting an earache on that side too because it is so close to the part where my throat hurts. It is really painful.

It might be a viral infection, an antibiotic won't help:( Drink lots of fluids (OJ or something with Vit C) and get some rest. Check with your doctor. Get well soon!

A few months ago my throat got really sore. It was like that for like two weeks before I did something about it. Of course over those two weeks it got worse and I was able to see a blister or bump in the back of my mouth(top of throat). I cured myself by experiment. I took some aspirin. I don't remember the name of it, but it was pre-crushed aspirin in little strips of white paper. The packets of crushed aspirin came in a blue and white box that can be found at any drug store. Try that.

I think it is only a minor viral infection. Sore throat is usually due to a viral infection. Gargling with warm salty water or mouthwash can reduce the pain and inconvenience. You can find some good home remedies at http://ailments.in/sorethroat.html

do not go to the hospital..bad advice....dont overcrowd them more than they already are..

how long have you felt like this?? do you have a fever...go to a clinic, get a swab done, if it comes back as strep then get some antibiotics....until then take some ibuprophen for the earache (eustachian tube to throat)

its just a blister, keep a cough drop on you and drink lots of water. Take some cough liquid to sooth your throat and take it easy.
