It can be in some rare cases, although a normal healthy adult has nothing to worry about. Young children, people with weakened immune systems, and the elderly are much more likely to die from strep throat.
Although most cases of Group A Beta Hemolytic Strep throat goes away by its own without antibiotics, you can uncommonly develop complications like abscess that can cause more serious illness. If you are in the right age group, usually between 3 and 30ys old, strep throat is usually treated for the purposes of preventing Rheumatic Fever. Rheumatic Fever, although quite rare these days, can be a very serious illness.
Nothing is impossible but, no your not very likely to die from strep throat. Just try to talk less maybe treat the sickness with medicine, get lots of sleep and you hopefully will feel better in a couple of days.
Yes strep throat is deadly, the infamous coughing fits can cause suffocation, killing a person in minutes. Hacking up excessive blood is extremely serious and should be consulted with a doctor.
Every year about 300,000 people die of rheumatic Heart disease after suffering for many years. Rheumatic heart disease is direct sequel of rheumatic fever. Rheumatic fever is direct sequel of strep throat.
Strep throat is not fatal, yet it can still be deadly if not treated properly. The same thing goes for all sore throat diseases.
Very rarely that it will kill you directly. But it kills about 300,000 people ever year by way of rheumatic heart disease.
Strep throat can be extremely dangerous.
Yes, it can kill you if you don't get medical care.
Yes. But, then, you should not use the gun to kill the mouse.
For gawds sake, don't drink this !!! It will kill YOU!!Consult a doctor. Rubbing alcohol is for external use only. Do not drink it!!
Antibiotics - because a cold is a virus caused disease and antibiotics have no effect on a virus. However strep throat is caused by a bacterium and antibiotics do kill bacteria.
Clindamycin is the the drug of choice for Strep throat. Penicillin and similar class are the drugs of choice.
It is possible, especially if the condition is not noticed, or if noticed, and nothing is done about it. (Like seeing a doctor immediately)
Yes and it can get infected and posably kill u.......... JK
Yes
clindamycin (cleocin) can be used to treat strep throat, but it's not the recommended treatment. strep throat is caused by streptococcus pyogenes. recommended treatment is with penicillin for 10 days. alternatives include amoxicillin; penicillin allergic patients can use azithro/clarithro/erythro-mycin. there is some evidence showing cleocin works, but it's not first choice
if you get strep throat then you probably swallowed the strep throat bacteria
One can catch strep throat at any age.
Tamiflu is an antiviral medication, not an antibiotic. Strep throat is caused by a streptococcal (strep) infection. Strep is a bacteria. An antiviral will have little to no affect on bacteria.
