A sore throat, also known as pharyngitis, is a common issue that many experience during cold months. This condition causes the throat to feel painful, scratchy, or irritated, making it difficult to swallow and often causing pain when talking. It can be accompanied by other symptoms like coughing, sneezing, or a fever. Sore throats are usually the result of infections like colds or the flu, but they can also arise from allergies, dry air, or irritants such as smoke. While they can be bothersome, most sore throats typically resolve on their own within about five days. However, if symptoms persist or if you develop a fever of 101°F or higher that lasts for a few days, it may be time to consult an ear, nose, and throat doctor.
