See your doctor: Strep throat is spread by contact with someone with strep so if you have children you might be getting it from them or if you are around children- It is important that you have a strep culture every time and not just someone looking in and saying it is strep Removing the tonsils can help and you may want to ask your doctor about seeing an ENT doctor
