Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. ASO rises when we have streptococcus infections. The common site of infection is throat. But apart from it can also infect heart valves, joints etc. So probably you have been operated for tonsils, but the focus of infection may be different. The rise in AS favors the support in that direction. I advise you should think for blood and culture for streptococcus bacteria. Once you receive the sensitivity report for the bacteria, you can take the most effective treatment. Once you take the complete treatment all your infection will be cured. Please take the complete treatment. I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thank you, ChatDoctorInfectious diseases specialist, ChatDoctor.
