Contact your doctor immediately if your sore throat is severe, accompanied by high fever (over 101°F or 38.3°C), difficulty swallowing, or a rash. These could indicate a serious infection requiring immediate attention.
Other Warning Signs:
Also, call your doctor if your sore throat persists for more than a few days despite taking doxycycline, or if it worsens progressively. Swollen glands in your neck alongside the sore throat also warrant a call. Pay attention to any changes in your throat or difficulty breathing. These symptoms require medical evaluation.
Remember, early diagnosis and treatment are key to managing infections effectively. Don’t hesitate to seek professional medical advice if you have any concerns.
