Abstract
Sore throat is one of the most common reasons to see an ENT specialist or therapist. However, sore throat does not always mean tonsillitis or other inflammatory disease of the oropharynx. The practical value of the assumption, the author hopes, will help doctors to perform a differential diagnosis of the diseases characterized by throat pain. Ultimately, if the diagnosis is correct, there is a chance to provide efficient care.
