Strep throat: No, you better see your doctor or go to the ER to make sure you are not developing symptoms for not treating your original infection

Strep: if you did not finish the course of antibiotics it may well recur you should always take the entire prescription od antibiotics. If it has recurred you will need a full course not just what is left.

Get rechecked: If you failed to complete your treatment, the timing is right for these symptoms to be either recurrence or the first signs of rheumatic fever. You need it evaluated so proper treatment can be started before you really get into trouble.
