It is painful to your throat for the time that you have the communicable diease. Yes, streptococcus can cause many communicable diseases but is rarely fatal. The most commonly involved areas of the body are the upper and lower respiratory systems, including the oromaxillary sinuses, nasopharynx, mouth, throat, eustachian tubes and inner ear, mouth and throat; as well as down into the bronchioles of the lungs. Impetigo, scarlet fever and toxic shock syndrome are also related to strep infections. Infections progress rapidly but are usually effectively treated by Gram-positive antibiotics as amoxicillin, erythromycin, and vancomycin.

How long contagious?
Most people are no longer contagious 24 hours after starting an appropriate antibiotic which eliminate streptococcus. Scarlet fever is a Streptococcus infection causing a high fever and a characteristic rash in children. Scarlet fever is most common in children between the ages of 5 and 15. Scarlet fever spreads by droplet and by contact transmission. Fomites and airborne transmission are rarely involved. Close contact is necessary to get the infected secretions from one person to the next. Children are most contagious during the fever. Most people are no longer contagious 24 hours after starting the antibiotic. I also recommend getting a new toothbrush for children after they are no longer contagious but before they finish the antibiotics, to prevent re-infection. source : wikipedia
