My older daughter was near the last to have tonsils out as a matter or routine for frequent strep-never had it again. My younger daughter dealt with them for years, but no dr. would remove her tonsils. Finally, when she was 15, she had them removed and never had another strep throat. Also, when I was under 5, I had mine out and never had strep after that.
