Understanding acute pharyngitis
Acute pharyngitis is a sudden inflammation of the back of the throat, normally 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.
Typical symptoms
- Sore, scratchy or burning throat
- Pain when swallowing
- Hoarse voice or dry cough
- Red throat and swollen glands in the neck
- Mild fever and tiredness
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.
