Take aspirin and get over it.
In the long run it's much easier to digest.
I had a friend die of strep in eighth grade. His parents said the same thing. I would have held them criminaly negligent and sued them if i was a state lawger.
Serious consequences can result from an ignored case of strep throat including permanent heart damage, kidney problems and rheumatic fever. I wouldn’t ignore a sore throat that lasted more than a few days.

Since there are simple tests for strep there is no reason to prescribe anti-biotics for a sore throat from a simple virus. It’s easy to rule strep out.
You can take pro-biotic supplements when starting an anti-biotic to prevent tummy trouble.
Aspirin? For strep? There’s a five-day course of antibiotics that’ll knock that strep right out. Why be contagious for longer than necessary?
I’ve heard many times about my mother’s older sister. She was an eight year old girl, so excited that my Grandma was pregnant, because she just knew she was going to get the baby sister she’d always wanted.
Because of strep throat, she died before her baby sister—my mother—was born.
That was in 1940, and my family STILL talks about her.
strept throat -take an aspirin and get over it....
Not with any degree of safety. Strept is not one you wear out. Going to the ears can lead to deafness, to the heart, pericarditis, to the kidney- renal failure. It just keeps on going, settling somewhere.
