Anyone who is pregnant and thinks that they may have strep throat should see a doctor. Doctors can treat strep throat with medications that fight bacterial infections. Although it does not often happen, untreated strep throat during pregnancy can lead to serious medical complications in both the woman and the fetus.

Infections may be due to bacteria, a fungus, or a virus. Although anyone can develop an infection that leads to white spots on the tonsils, having a weakened immune system puts a person at a higher risk. Let's have a detailed discussion for better advice and medication plan.

If the child is having the symptoms often then you nd to go for surgery else there might be complications. Antibiotics and other medication will reduce the symptoms but again might after a month or two you will come with the same complian. Preventive measures: maintain oral hygeine by asking her to gargle after every meal ,no to ice cream and freezed food, avoid cold as far as possible. U have to consult ent specialist regarding further evaluation and treatment.
