  1. Common Throat Infections: Causes, Symptoms & Treatment Dr. Raman Abrol- Throat doctor in Chandigarh

  2. What are Throat Infections? Throat infections occur when bacteria, viruses, or fungi cause inflammation and irritation in the throat, affecting areas like the pharynx (pharyngitis), tonsils (tonsillitis), or larynx (laryngitis). These infections are commonly caused by viral illnesses such as the common cold, flu, or mononucleosis, while bacterial infections like strep throat and tonsillitis can also lead to severe throat pain and discomfort. Additionally, fungal infections such as oral thrush (caused by Candida) and irritants like smoke, pollution, and acid reflux (GERD) can contribute to throat issues. Symptoms typically include sore throat, difficulty swallowing, redness, swelling, hoarseness, fever, and mucus buildup. Treatment depends on the cause—viral infections usually require rest, hydration, and saltwater gargles, while bacterial infections may need antibiotics. Fungal infections are treated with antifungal medications, and avoiding smoking, spicy foods, and allergens can help prevent further irritation. For persistent throat problems, it is advisable to consult a throat doctor in Chandigarh, such as Dr. Raman Abrol, for expert diagnosis and treatment.
