That's difficult to say. Patients with "strep throat" often have a sore throat and stomach pains, but a cough is usually a negative predictive factor for strep throat.

It could be a combination of factors and not one single thing to explain it all. If it persists, see your primary care physician.
Hello,

Difficult to say without an exam. Could be a viral process or bacterial such as strep. Recommend seeing a physician.
