The Call-On-Doc Guide to Strep Throat
What Is Strep Throat?
Strep throat is a bacterial infection of the throat and tonsils caused by Group A Streptococcus (GAS). It is most common in children and adolescents but can affect adults as well. Unlike viral sore throats, strep throat typically requires antibiotic treatment to fully resolve and to prevent complications.
Because symptoms can overlap with viral illnesses, proper testing is important to confirm the diagnosis and guide treatment.
