What does it mean if you have some symptoms of strep throat but no fever?

It is possible to have strep throat without a fever. In fact, some people with strep throat may only have a mild fever or no fever at all. However, a fever is one of the most common symptoms of strep throat, so if you have other symptoms of strep throat but no fever, it is still possible that you have the infection.

Other symptoms of strep throat include:

- A sore throat that is worse on one side

- Difficulty swallowing

- Swollen lymph nodes in the neck

- Headache

- Muscle aches

- Fatigue

- Loss of appetite

- Nausea or vomiting

If you have any of these symptoms, it is important to see a doctor to get tested for strep throat. Strep throat is a bacterial infection, and it can be treated with antibiotics. If left untreated, strep throat can lead to serious complications, such as rheumatic fever and kidney damage.
