About acute pharyngitis
The back of the throat becomes inflamed rapidly in acute pharyngitis. The throat feels sore and scratchy and normally settles within about a week.
Common triggers
Most cases are caused by cold and flu viruses that spread through droplets and shared cups. Air conditioning, dry air, smoking and shouting over loud music can irritate the throat and make it worse.
Typical symptoms
- Hoarse voice or dry cough
- Mild fever and tiredness
- Pain when swallowing
- Red throat and swollen glands in the neck
Prevention tips
Wash your hands commonly, avoid sharing cups and cutlery, and stay away from people with a cold when you can.
How acute pharyngitis is treated
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 suitable. Typical choices are pain relief, throat lozenges or sprays and, only if a bacterial infection is likely, a short course of antibiotics.
- Drink plenty of warm and cool fluids
- Rest your voice and avoid smoke
- Gargle with warm salty water or suck lozenges
