VerifiedHello mom a board certified internal medicine physician. Let me help you out today.
You could very well have strep throat. We are seeing children get it multiple times this year and many adults are getting it multiple times as well.
We are unable to prescribe antibiotics on this platform, however, I would recommend signing up with a company like a Teladoc or American well. They are both very reputable, telemedicine companies with whom I have to work. With Teladoc they can set you up with a profile over the phone and a physician can call you and establish a patient Physician relationship and call you in an anabiotic.

Thank you to the Physician who answered my question today. The answer was far more informative than what I got from the Physicians I saw in person for my problem.
