When should I go and see a doctor at Reddy Urgent Care in Long Beach, CA?


A patient’s age is a big factor on when you should visit our walk-in urgent care center. If your child’s throat continues to be sore after 24 hours and after drinking water in the morning, bring them to our clinic. If they develop problems swallowing or breathing, come immediately. In infants, unusual drooling is a sign that swallowing is difficult.
As an adult, you can wait a little longer to see one of our doctors. Generally, if it has not cleared up in a week, you should see a doctor and get checked out. Come sooner if you have trouble swallowing, your throat is in constant pain, you have a rash or an earache, or a fever of 101 or higher. Seek immediate care if you find blood in your phlegm or if there is a lump in your neck.

What causes a sore throat?


There are many factors that can cause a sore throat. Your sore throat is a warning sign that there is a problem with your body. A sore throat can be a symptom of the flu, mono, croup, chickenpox, or just a common cold. Bacteria, like strep throat, generally cause a nasty sore throat. There can also be environmental factors that trigger a sore throat including seasonal allergies and irritants in the air. Others can develop a sore throat by straining your voice, such as yelling at a music concert. Because there are so many possible causes of a sore throat, it is vital to get evaluated by a doctor, so they can determine the best treatment. Our state of the art lab is also available to our doctors to test for specific things, like strep or the flu.
