Should I change my toothbrush after getting pharyngitis?

Question

Hello, I had a strep throat on December 17 + treatment from December 17 to 27. I had no more symptoms. I think I will re-infect 7 days later from the last day of treatment? is it possible that my boyfriend re-infects me without having any symptoms? Thank you

Hello, ma'am! It is unlikely that you were reinfected by your toothbrush after all this time. However, it is difficult to determine if it is from your spouse: is he or she showing symptoms? Are you experiencing other symptoms? I hope I've been helpful, and if you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask Tom Samaha, pharmacist
