A member asked:
I finished a course of amoxicillin for strep throat a few days ago and now my throat hurts again. how likely is it that i have strep again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Strep throat: Do not know how your strep throat was diagnosed, but this can recur for a variety of reasons. Failure of the first therapy because other bacteria were producing enzymes that destroyed the antibiotic, reinfection, wrong diagnosis, and so on and so on. See a doctor.
