Strep Throat |
 | | If your child's throat is sore and he or she has other strep throat symptoms, it's a good idea to call your child's doctor. |
| | If your child is not treated for strep throat, he or she is most infectious when the symptoms are the most severe but could remain contagious for up to 21 days. |
| | To prevent your sick child from spreading strep throat to others in your home, keep his or her eating utensils, dishes, and drinking glasses separate from those that everyone else is using. |
