Acute pharyngitis explained
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.
Why acute pharyngitis happens
Cold and flu viruses passed on by droplets and shared cups cause most cases. Dry air-conditioned rooms, cigarette smoke and shouting in noisy bars make it worse.
