Do I need to see a doctor to get a prescription?

Hello,

do you have trouble swallowing?

Do you have white tonsils? Swollen lymph nodes? If you have other symptoms you can mention them. COVID-19 can also cause a sore throat.

The signs of strep throat are

-difficulty swallowing

-red/swollen tonsils/white spots

-swollen glands

However, if you do not see any improvement in your condition, only a health care professional such as a doctor, PHI or your health care provider can prescribe medication to treat an infection. If it is a strep throat, there are pharmacies where you can go for a test and if the pharmacist has a collective prescription, he can prescribe the necessary treatment.

I hope I have answered your questions!
