Sore Throat
A sore throat, also known as pharyngitis or throat pain, is an inflammation of the mucous membranes of the oropharynx that results in pain or scratchiness. It is commonly caused by viral infections such as the common cold and flu, bacterial infections like group A streptococcal infection, or other factors like dehydration and tonsillitis.
