Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read and understood your history of recurrent strep throat.
It is possible to get repeated attacks as we all mingle with people at very place including the work, transport and all.
Hence you must have got the strep throat again.
If you do not have any symptoms you can be under observation and the further course taken the moment the symptoms appear.
Prevention is better than cure.
See that you meet the minimum of people.
Keep away from crowded places and from those who are having any nose or throat problems.
Your present problem is called a chronic pharyngitis and needs further investigations of blood including that for sugar to rule out any abnormality.
I find this answer helpful
