[|Human|] My son has a sore throat and the gums in the back of his mouth are very swollen. He can hardly swallow and has been to a doctor three times. He is on antibiotics and even received a shot of antibiotic. He feels like the pain is moving towards the front of his mouth and says it is extremely painful to swallow. He has been running a temp of 102 for four days now.
[|AI|]  Hi.these symptoms you quote are fitting into streptococcal sore throat and if I were your pediatrician I would have done a rapid strep test to find out the offending microbe and would have started on Oral Amoxicillin but only after taking a throat swab for culture. Kindly approach your pediatrician with these tips. Hope my answer was helpful for you.  I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Chat Doctor are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
