My doctor has told me that for strep throat antibiotics don't make it heal but maybe a day or two before if you just let your "body" handle it.
Unfortunately, your body may appear to have handled it, but years later you can run into complications.
From
http://www.mayoclinic.com :
If untreated, strep throat can sometimes cause complications such as kidney inflammation and rheumatic fever. Rheumatic fever can lead to painful and inflamed joints, a rash and even damage to heart valves.
