Hello. Thank you for your question. I am sorry your daughter is not well. It is possible that she was reinfected, that the original infection was never gone, or that she developed a viral infection. If it is strep again, she would need to be retreated. I recommend consulting with your doctor so the direct diagnosis can be made and the appropriate treatment plan implemented.
