  • yes it is possible. you can have anything with out symptoms at first but eventually you will get the symptoms.
  • According to my knowledged wife, this is only possible in the early stages of strep throat. You will definetely die from a sore throat, if you have strep.
  • According to the symptom description on the MayoClinic website, you "may" experience sore throat. To me that says you also might not. http://familydoctor.org/online/famdocen/home/common/infections/common/bacterial/670.html http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=strep+throat&fr=yfp-t-501&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8
  • You can have strep and not have a sore throat. You can actually get "strep bottom." My kids have had this a couple of times - you get a rash that radiates down the thighs, but no fever. Strep "throat" always gives you a sore throat and it's usually the first symptom, swiftly followed by a fever and body aches and often a headache (I get regular bouts of strep.)
  • I am the Queen of Strep and I sometimes just had a little tickle in there, not so much major pain.
  • Sure is. And you can die of strep if it goes beyond the throat and becomes systemic.
  • Yes, it could happen.
  • Yes, You can have strep throat without having a sore throat, especially pediatric patients who often present with rashes, upset stomaches, lethargy, loss of appetite and other less common symptoms while not having a sore throat. As mentioned earlier....left untreated complication can be fatal and can include systemic organ failure. The Strep Bacteria can cause permanent neurological and heart damage
  • I have had strep throat without a sore throat. I went to the dr. because I was extremely tired, had a headache and a constant cough. It was strep and I was surprised because my throat wasnt sore at all. I have had strep at least a dozen times in my life and not once have the symptoms been exactly the same. So get tested if you even think you may have strep. You can get very very sick and I have heard (dont quote me) that you can get scarlet fever and even die from strep
