Strep throat: If you only have a sore throat, there's a possibility of you having contracted strep again. However, in the presence of tongue blisters, the likelihood of having strep again is low. You may just have a viral infection at this point. Be it as it may, you are still contagious and continue practicing good handwashing techniques. If you have any doubr at all, take another strep test or throat culture.

NEW INFECTION.: Bacterial infections like this are transmissible and another infection can occur. Utensils and saliva drops are the common "vehicles" that pass the germs from one to another person.
