Possible Strep Throat Germs Hide In Body And Flare Up In Bladder? Any Medications For The Same?

Is it true that if a person ever had strep throat, (at 16, I did after swimming in the wisconsin river where there may have been allot of lead from a nearby mine...) Is it possible for anyone who had survived a few bad cases of the regular strep germ ;not necessarily merca, - Is it possible for theat strep to hide in the body , and flare up and particularily the bladder, and if so, is there a particular medication , or herb that can knowk this out like TYuya, Imporuru of Sangre de Drago etc...? started asking the questions before I had the chance to see I had to pay for it. I m flat broke right now. thankyou any way.

Thanks for your query.You should be worried but not so much for this problem.It is true that these bacteria can spread through direct contact with mucus from the nose to throat of person who are infected or through contact with infected wounds or sores in the skin.Strep throat or skin infection are the most likely to spread the infection but to pass from the throat to bladder is not possible because in the throat is strep GR.A end in the urinary tract(bladder often in the vagina )is strep GR.B.Strep GR.B can spread from vagina to bladder therefore a good hygiene is needed . For your infection of the bladder you can use so much tea (If you do not have symptoms).To treat these infection for the persons who have symptoms(urinating often,burning during urine)should be used antibiotics described from the doctor.(amoxicillin is the first choice or erythromycin for the patient who have life threatening reaction)
I hope I was understandable
