Sore Throat Treatment FAQs
Common questions about sore throat treatment in Lanzarote
Can I get antibiotics for a sore throat online in Lanzarote?
Yes, if our doctor determines you have a bacterial infection like strep throat, they can prescribe antibiotics that you can pick up at any pharmacy in Lanzarote. Not all sore throats require antibiotics—viral infections won't respond to them—so proper diagnosis is important.
How do I know if my sore throat is strep throat?
Strep throat often comes with sudden severe throat pain, fever, swollen lymph nodes, and white patches on tonsils, but WITHOUT cough or runny nose. Our doctors can assess your symptoms via video consultation and recommend appropriate treatment or testing.
How quickly can I see a doctor for my sore throat in Lanzarote?
With UrgentDoc, you can connect with an English-speaking doctor within minutes, 24/7. There's no need to wait for clinic hours or deal with language barriers in Lanzarote.
What will the online consultation for sore throat include?
The doctor will ask about your symptoms, how long you've had them, and your medical history. They'll provide a diagnosis, treatment plan, and if needed, prescriptions for antibiotics, pain relief, or other medications.

Many travel insurance policies cover telemedicine consultations. We provide detailed receipts and medical documentation that you can submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement.
