Doctor can recheck: Tonsillitis can be from strep throat, a cold or influenza (antibiotics usually not used), or from some other cause such as allergies, irritants, or acid reflux. Usually, a person sees a doctor if the sore throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly. If treatment for strep throat is leading to side effects, one's doctor can recheck to see if a different type of medication can help.
