Hey! Is your throat really sore? Try looking down it, see if your tonsils are inflamed, if they have any white bits on them - you might just have tonsilitis. Take plenty of painkillers, ibprofen - this will help the swelling. Carry on drinking plenty and just rest until you see the doc!

I wouldnt take someone elses medication...

Does your doctor not have any appointments today? Ours has a drop in session 10-2 on Saturdays...

I know that my doc is always difficult to see on a weekend, i think its appointments only or something silly! Abd you usually have to ring up early to get an emergency appointment.

Sounds like swollen glands / glandular fever. Also possible, but highly unlikely, is a reaction to some sort of insect bite.

More likely glandular fever or just a bad cold. Sometimes if you have a nasty virus your glands will become swollen which sounds the case. Take some paracetamol and/or ibuprofen and rest up! :smile:

Might be mumps, but the swelling is normally in front of the ears, so perhaps not.

you really need to get to the drs doll, the cuts are prob the dehydration but you cant be sure, make sure you tell the gp youve been taken the meds (take them with you) as you may be given something that reactsa to them by accident. Good luck
