When to seek treatment  

​

It’s important to promptly consult with a medical professional if you are experiencing the symptoms of strep throat. The most common symptom is a very sore throat, which may be accompanied by:

​

• Swollen neck lymph nodes

• Nausea

• Fever

• Painful swallowing​

​

Without treatment, strep throat may progress to infect the sinuses, tonsils, middle ear, and even blood.  

​

At Lifeline Urgent Care, our patients benefit from little to no wait times and an expertly trained staff of friendly professionals. If one of our physicians suspects you have strep throat, we can quickly perform a strep throat test and provide necessary treatment. Most cases of this infection can be cured with a round of antibiotics and plenty of rest. We may also recommend additional medications to help relieve other symptoms you may be experiencing.
