    If you have strep throat now, it should be gone by Christmas, otherwise there is a serious problem. Just remember to have lots of water/juice, throat lozenges, and keep the talking to a minimum.But, perhaps you should go to the doctor? If it's a bacterial infection, they will give you medication to help it heal quickly.

    I get strep throat probably every 5 months, And to soothe a sore throat I eat popsicles and drink lots of water and juice. Have some Advil or tylenol to soothe it too. And if you have it by now, it'll be gone before Christmas. (:
