Yes you can get strep throat, you cannot get tonsillitis

Yes. I had my tonsils out when I was 11. I struggled with throat infections all of my childhood because of them, though once they were removed, I hardly ever have a sore throat. Two months ago I contracted strep, though :) So it is possible. Hope you feel better! Hot tea can help alleviate the pain.

Yes. You can get streptococcal pharyngitis and cervical lymphadenitis.

yes you can. a strep throat doesnt mean tonsilitis. With or without tonsils you can stil have throat infections.

Get pleanty of rest, throat sothers, eat pineapple and drink heaps of water. Pineapple will heal the throat infection.
If it gets really bad you will have to see a doctor to get antibiotics to treat the infection
