To cure a strep throat do you have to throw up to get rid of it or can you just blow it all out your nose?

IF indeed a strep: Throat , you cannot throw it up or blow it out. You need antibiotics to treat it if bacterial, and supportive treatment if viral in nature. Consult with your doctor for treatment and not get so sick to end up in the hospital !
