Acute Pharyngitis Explained
Acute pharyngitis is a sudden inflammation of the back of the throat, usually caused by a virus and sometimes by bacteria such as streptococcus. A virus is the usual cause, bacteria like streptococcus the exception, and it typically passes in around a week.
Causes and Risk Factors
Most cases are caused by cold and flu viruses that spread through droplets and shared cups. Dry air-conditioned rooms, cigarette smoke and shouting in noisy bars make it worse.
