Question: Will Strep throat go away on its own, without antibiotics.?
Answers:
It can go away. In fact, if you were to culture a swab from healthy people, a good number of them would actually be positive for strep, but have no symptoms. A healthy individual should be able to fight off strep throat without antibiotics, but it may take longer and cause some problems before it can be eliminated.Health Question & Answer
