喉咙痛
介绍
Sore throats (pharyngitis) are a very common medical condition. Sore throats are most frequently caused by viral infections. The majority of sore throats heal on their own. The symptoms may be relieved with home treatments and over-the-counter medications. Sore throats that are caused by bacteria can be serious and require antibiotics.

Significant sore throats that are caused by bacteria are treated with antibiotics. Antibiotics cannot treat sore throats that are caused by viruses. Sore throats caused by viruses heal on their own. Repeated episodes of sore throats may be the sign of allergies, and a person should be evaluated by an allergist.
