Overview
Sore throat is a common symptom of many medical issues. However, some throat care issues are more serious than others and may require surgery. The majority of sore throats are caused by infections and are contagious. Viruses such as the flu, the common cold, or bacteria such as strep can cause infections. Other common causes include allergies or GERD, the leaking of stomach acids back into your esophagus. Other issues that affect the throat include cancer, tonsillitis, laryngitis and croup.
Most throat problems are minor. However, if you need experienced throat care, our ENT specialists offer comprehensive treatment for you.
