[quote=Anonymous]There are a few issues here. I think it takes longer than 24 hours to bounce back from strep. It can take up to 72 hours (or more) to feel well enough to go back to school. It totally depends on the kid and the case of strep, however. Sometimes 24 hours is fine. But strep can be very painful and debilitating, especially if there's vomiting. Strep is not usually a tonsil issue, but I'm not that conversant. If your child is having strep 7 times a year, I would see an ENT. There may be an issue of being a strep carrier, or she may need a different/stronger antibiotic. I know I carried strep for about 3 years and had it almost constantly. Finally got rid of it. [/quote]
