Strep is a bacterial infection (not a virus), which means it will not improve on its own and does require antibiotics once confirmed.

🔍Symptoms to watch for:
• Fever
• Sudden sore throat / pain with swallowing
• Headache
• Stomachache or vomiting (very common in kids!)
• Swollen glands in the neck
• Red throat or white

🍵Home comfort care:
• Tylenol or Motrin for pain/fever (age-appropriate dosing)
• Warm salt-water gargles
• Cool mist humidifier
• Lots of fluids
• Eating soft or cool foods (popsicles, applesauce, soup, smoothies, mashed potatoes)
• Rest

💊Treatment:
If the test is positive:
• Your child will get an antibiotic
Please finish the full prescription even if they feel better in 2-3 days.

Measles is extremely contagious and spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. The virus can even stay in the air for up to 2 hours after they leave the room, making it very easy to catch especially for unvaccinated children.

The best protection is the MMR vaccine. It is safe, effective, and protects not only your child, but also infants and medically fragile individuals in our community who cannot be vaccinated.
