Dr. Chen Weiqing
If throat pain (i.e., pain in the laryngeal prominence) is caused by an acute upper respiratory tract infection, associated symptoms may include chills, fever, and diminished taste sensation. Throat pain may also result from acute tonsillitis, with primary manifestations including dysphagia, tonsillar enlargement, and possibly snoring during sleep. Patients are advised to abstain from smoking and alcohol consumption during illness and to increase fluid intake.
