“Most sore throats are caused by viral infections and go away on their own within a few days. In some cases, a sore throat can be caused by a bacterial infection, such as streptococcal tonsillitis (tonsillitis),” he told the Now Attention website.
Left untreated, bacterial infections can lead to complications such as acute rheumatic fever or inflammation of the kidneys (post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis).
If the underlying cause of the sore throat is not identified and treated, it may persist or recur frequently. Most often, such a sore throat is not dangerous, but it can significantly affect the quality of life, the doctor concluded.
Earlier it became known that Roman Kostomarov was finally discharged from the hospital after six months of testing.
