Hi, I had scarlet fever and stoped taking antibiotics a week ago, now I am sick again. I have a fever and pain in my throat when i swallow. Could it be that my scarlet fever came back after a week?
Female | 17
You might have a throat infection after scarlet fever. Fever and throat pain come from bacteria causing a new infection. Not scarlet fever again, but a different one. Drink fluids, rest well, and use throat lozenges for pain relief. See a doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.
