you are no longer contagious after 24 hours on an antibotic, but, you could still feel bad and run down for 7-10 days. your throat should be completley healed by then
First and foremost: REST!!!!! Sleep as much as you can! Stay in bed! Have someone help you if you can. And don't try to be all "heroic" and drag in to work or school. That isn't strong, it's stupid. Not to mention inconsiderate because you can pass it on to others.
Pneumonia and especially scarlet fever are possible outcomes from neglecting strep throat, and sometimes they can be lethal.
Take it seriously.
