Sore throat in a Lisle, IL student: strep or a virus?
Points toward strep (CDC)
A sore throat that starts quickly
Pain when swallowing and a fever
Red, swollen tonsils, sometimes with white patches
Tiny red spots on the roof of the mouth
Headache or stomach pain in younger kids
Points toward a virus (CDC)

HealthyChildren.org says strep cannot be diagnosed just by looking at the throat. It notes that when a rapid strep test is negative, doctors sometimes confirm it with a throat culture. Our clinicians can do a rapid strep test, and if strep is found, treatment may include prescription medicine when appropriate, and it should be finished as prescribed. See strep throat treatment and sore throat vs. strep.

Can a sitter pick up my child from school and bring them in?
A parent or legal guardian needs to consent to a child's care. If a sitter will bring your child, call (630) 324-6825 ahead of time and ask what the clinic needs from you, and keep your phone handy during the visit.
When is the Lisle CUSD 202 physical due?
The district requires a physical within the calendar year before a child enters kindergarten, 6th grade or 9th grade, with proof due by October 15. Bring the district form and vaccine record to the physical so the clinician can complete it.
Does a negative rapid strep test rule out strep?
Not always. HealthyChildren.org says that when a rapid test is negative, a doctor may confirm it with a throat culture. A negative result suggests a virus, and antibiotics do not help viral sore throats, which usually improve within 7 to 10 days.
Can I get a note for missing work while my child is sick?
Yes. Ask at the visit. We can provide a school note for your child and a work note for you. Both clinics are open until 6 PM on weekdays.
Why does my child need to finish the whole strep prescription?
HealthyChildren.org says oral antibiotics for strep should be finished as prescribed, even after your child feels better. Untreated strep can lead to problems such as a tonsil abscess, kidney problems or, rarely, rheumatic fever.
