Hi,

Thanks for your query.

The symptoms you had are very typical as seen in any infections by bacteria.The blood test has confirmed the fact that a bacteria was involved.

Anti streptolysin is an antibody seen in infections with streptococcus. I would recommend you a course of antibiotics belonging to pencillin group like amoxicillin or ampicillin.The above antibiotics will cure your infection and render you symptom free.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
