"I have a sore throat and ear. My test results are negative, but I have constant pain. What should I do?"

If you have persistent pain in your throat and ears despite negative test results, it may be a good idea to consult a doctor or find a pharmacy that offers strep tests. It's possible that the initial test was falsely negative. In the meantime, taking Advil™ for pain relief and avoiding irritating foods may help. Seeking medical advice is likely the best course of action to address the discomfort.
