Strep throat or tonsilitis?

The lymphnode on the right side of my neck is slightly swollen, sore throat, and white pus patches on and around my tonsils. I had the same thing back in September. It only lasted about a week or so though. It’s back, but doesn’t seem to be as bad as before. All I want to know is is it strep throat or just a reoccuring case of tonsilitis.

Also in September, I did make-out with my boyfriend at the time and he never got it which is why I’m reluctant to think it’s strep.

Answer #1

That’s how my throat gets when I have strept, get it checked before it gets worse.
