5 yr old dx strep 1 wk ago. on amox . now c/o throat hurt, temp 101 and small white dots on tongue. strep still there or new virus?

Repeat/ see Doc: The strep infect may have returned. One cause maybe that someone in the family or amongst friends maybe a carrier and may have given it back to the child. Best would be to return to her doctor and have a rapid strep test and a throat culture and discuss with him what should the next step be.
