May have yeast : Does not sound like typical strep throat. But probably has fungal and/or viral infection. Needs to see her family doc.

Earache: You either have wax in the ear of fluid in the middle ear. Sore throat could be a strep infection. The tonsils will have pustules on them or pus. The whitish tongue does not indicate much. You can calm your family doc and ask for an antibiotic if you can not get in to see him or her. Good luck.
