How To Treat Strep Throat?

Hi, I have been sick for about 2-4 days but I was taking over the counter meds. I went to the doctor yesterday and I have strep throat but I am now taking prescribed medicine for it now, but I was wondering will it be any harm to my girlfriend if I gave her oral, will it infect that area?

Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns.

Better to avoid unless you feel getting better after a full course of the antibiotics. It may lead to infecting her less but getting you more severe infection and non healing one after that. Vagina is a reservoir full of bacteria that are normal residents there. You are already infected and combined with a more stronger team of different pathogens chances are to deteriorate your condition and getting an antibiotic resistant infection.


Hope I answered all of your questions. In future, if you need further, detailed and quick assistance on any health issue, feel free to ask me a question by writing my name as a reference in the start of your question. I will get back to you right away. Have a wonderful time ahead.
