Understanding Acute Pharyngitis
Acute pharyngitis means a sudden swelling of the back of the throat, mostly due to a virus and occasionally bacteria such as streptococcus. The throat feels sore and scratchy and usually clears up within about a week.
Symptoms of Acute Pharyngitis
- Mild fever and tiredness
- Red throat and swollen glands in the neck
- Hoarse voice or dry cough
- Sore, scratchy or burning throat
- Pain when swallowing
Why Acute Pharyngitis Happens
The usual cause is a cold or flu virus spread through droplets and shared drinks. Air conditioning, dry air, smoking and shouting over loud music can irritate the throat and make it worse.
How to Lower Your Risk of Acute Pharyngitis
Wash your hands often, avoid sharing cups and cutlery, and stay away from people with a cold when you can.
Care and Treatment for Acute Pharyngitis
The doctor asks about your symptoms, looks at your throat on camera, judges whether bacteria are likely and advises on pain relief. An antibiotic is prescribed only if it is appropriate. Options may include pain relief, throat lozenges or sprays and, only if a bacterial infection is likely, a short course of antibiotics.
