We took my son last night to the ER he had a 104.4 temp and he had a headache. Didn't know what was goin on so the dr. thought it could be menigentis but luckly it wasn't. Found out its Strep Troat! Anyone have their child go through this and how long did it take them to get better? He is 6 1/2.

My son just got over strep throat. He was on antibiotics for 10 days. He started to feel better in a few days. Hope your LO feels better soon.
24 with the antibiotic he is no longer contagious and should start felling better quickly like within 2 days. Give with Tylenol for pain as needed.
Hope he feels better soon
My son just had strep, he never even ran a fever we took him because his ears were hurting and it was strep. He felt better after a day or two on the antibiotics.
My 2 older kids have had it a few different times. My son Aaron got scarlet fever along with it the first time he had it. That was not fun at all! Once the antibiotics kick in it only takes a few days before they start to feel better. My kids don't eat or dink much when they have it so you have to watch for dehydration.
Yeah i'm trying to watch him b/c he hasn't been waiting to eat which i understand with the throat but drinking he hasn't been doin alot of. Thanks for all ur help he has only gotten 3 dosin in since we got the meds so i was just wondering about when he should start feeling better!
