9 Acute pharyngitis, unspecified.
Pharyngitis — commonly known as sore throat — is an inflammation of the pharynx, resulting in a sore throat. Thus, pharyngitis is a symptom, rather than a condition.
There are two main types of pharyngitis—infectious and noninfectious.
Pharyngitis refers to an inflamed pharynx. It's the medical term for a sore throat. Your pharynx starts behind your nose and ends just above your voice box. Laryngitis refers to an inflamed larynx, or voice box.
Many viruses and bacteria can cause acute pharyngitis. Streptococcus pyogenes, which are also called group A Streptococcus (group A strep), cause acute pharyngitis known as strep throat.

Penicillin and amoxicillin are the antibiotics of choice for the treatment of pharyngitis.
Acute pharyngitis is more common than chronic pharyngitis. Treatment involves treating the symptoms, and it usually goes away within 10 days. In comparison, chronic pharyngitis lingers for much longer — often for several weeks. There are many different causes, and treatment involves addressing the underlying problem.
Pharyngitis is rarely a serious condition and often occurs alongside colds and the flu. Viral pharyngitis typically clears up on its own within a couple of weeks, but bacterial pharyngitis may require a course of antibiotics to prevent complications. Complications of pharyngitis, such as rheumatic fever, are rare.
