Suggest Treatment For Recurrent Strep Throat

Alright so my throat started hurting last Wednesday, January 28th. And I had no idea what it was but it didn t feel normal so I decided to take a flash light and look myself Saturday morning. It was white and red and stuff and looked nasty so I got a picture, showed my mom and she ended up taking me to the emergency room. As we suspected, it was strep throat. So my doctor prescribed me amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium pills in which I started to take saturday, twice a day like I was told. The pain was still there through Monday and then Tuesday and Wednesday I could eat perfectly normal and it didn t hurt at all. BUT then this morning I felt dizzy and it once again started to hurt, just as bad and I can see it s still there but I m taking the antibiotics so I wanna know why my throat stopped hurting and just out of nowhere started again. Maybe it was something I ate? I don t know but the doctor said it would get better after taking antibiotics 24-48 hours. I have 4 days worth left. Which means there were 20 to begin with.
