    It's possible, I had strep before. Normally it is unbearable to swallow anything, get your mom or dad to check your throat with a flashlight, there will be red or white dots. I hope I helped, and you and your sis get better 😃 don't go to the doctor yet though! Gargle with salt water twice a day, it will burn but that means it's killing the infection. Have soup or some liquids if it starts hurting. Once again get better ;)

    You probably have it then. Go get some antibiotics.
