I had strep throat two weeks ago and my antibiotics are finished, but I think I'm getting it again. Apple cider vinegar is supposed to help with sore throats, right?

it may provide temporary relief for pain but it wont cure anything. go back and see the doc again if you feel like you have strep again

it might make them feel better, but if the antibiotics didn't work- apple cider won't either. go back to the doc, he'll give you a stronger antibiotic. you want to get strep throat taken care of quickly... its not something your body can fight off naturally.. if you don't get it taken care of you could end up with scarlet fever.

I wouldn't bank on that as a cure.
I had it and had to take a second course of antibiotics before it cleared up.
I suggest going back to your doctor.

Gargling three times a day with warm water and aspirin should get it by the second day.

no go to the doc

No, You could go back to MD or you can try gargling with Hydrogen peroxide (it will feel weird because of bubbles).
Also use Anbesol (for oral infections & pain)
Put Anbesol on Q-Tips & if you have white spots on your throat, take them off onto Q-Tips.
If throat is just red, Swab entire throat so it's coated with Anbesol.
Vit. C 1000mg every 2 hours for 2-3 days.
Suck on Zinc lozenges. Suck on cough drops with eucalyptus.
Zinc 50mg.
Drink tea with lemon

Feel better
