Streptococcal pharyngitis - Generics
Streptococcal pharyngitis, also known as strep throat, is a bacterial infection that affects the throat and tonsils. It is caused by the bacterium Streptococcus pyogenes and is most common in children and adolescents.
Symptoms of strep throat can include:
- Sore throat
- Difficulty swallowing
- Red and swollen tonsils
- White patches or pus on the tonsils
- Swollen lymph nodes in the neck
- Fever
- Headache
- Nausea or vomiting
- Rash (in some cases)
Diagnosis of strep throat involves a physical examination and a throat culture or rapid antigen test. Treatment typically involves antibiotics to help kill the bacteria and relieve symptoms.
It is important to seek medical attention if you suspect you or your child may have strep throat, as untreated strep throat can lead to serious complications such as rheumatic fever and kidney inflammation.
In addition to antibiotics, home remedies can also help relieve symptoms of strep throat, such as:
- Resting and staying hydrated
- Gargling with warm salt water
- Using a humidifier or steam inhalation to help soothe the throat
- Taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen to help reduce fever and relieve pain
It is important to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed by a healthcare professional, even if symptoms improve, to ensure that the infection is fully treated and to prevent complications.
