A member asked:
I tested pos. for strep b in my tonsils. after three antibiotics, i still have some pain in my throat and can now see my epiglottis. is it still strep?

I doubt if : You can see your epiglottis, but if you still have sore throat, repeat the throat culture to make sure you got rid of strep. Otherwise, it can come back.
