Strep throat is a bacterial infection caused by Streptococcus pyogenes, affecting the throat and tonsils, and is most common in children and teenagers.
Strep throat is spread through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes, and by touching surfaces contaminated with the bacteria.
Symptoms include a sudden sore throat, painful swallowing, red and swollen tonsils, fever, and swollen lymph nodes in the neck.
Strep throat is diagnosed using a rapid strep test or a throat culture to confirm the presence of group A streptococcus bacteria.

You should see a doctor if your cough persists for more than three weeks, is accompanied by high fever, produces blood or thick mucus, or if you experience shortness of breath or chest pain.
Home remedies include staying hydrated, using a humidifier, drinking warm fluids, and using over-the-counter cough suppressants or lozenges.
