The cause of strep throat:

* Virus, 80% of sore throats are caused by viruses, can cause fever.

* Coughs and colds. Where the cough and phlegm (mucus) can make the throat irritated.

* Coxsackie virus (hand, foot, and mouth disease).

* Allergy. Allergies can cause mild irritation of the throat that are chronic (persistent).

* The bacteria streptococcus, confirmed by throat culture. This test is generally performed in the laboratory using the patient's throat swab. Can be found the classic symptoms of strep germs such as severe pain on swallowing, visible white spots, vomiting - vomiting, ulcers in thyroid gland, thyroid gland enlargement accompanied.

Most sore throats are caused by two types of viral and bacterial infections. Approximately 80% of sore throats are caused by viruses and only about 10-20% are caused by bacteria. To be able to handle it, it's important to know that experienced infections caused by viruses or bacteria streptococcus.

Viral infection is usually the cause of colds (colds) and influenza which later resulted in the occurrence of sore throat. Colds usually resolves itself around a week so your body forms antibodies against the virus.

Treatment with antibiotics is not effective for treating viral infections. In contrast, antibiotics can cause germ resistance or immunity to antibiotics. When the bacteria have been resistant to these antibiotics, when antibiotics we use, will no longer effective in killing germs. As a result, the illness will not heal.

Common symptoms of strep throat (Laryngitis) caused by viral infection as follows:

• pain or itching and dry.
• coughing and sneezing.
• slight fever or no fever.
• hoarseness or husky.
• runny nose and fluid in the back of the nose.

Before giving the treatment, it is very important for doctors to find the cause of strep throat in order to establish the correct diagnosis in order to prevent inappropriate antibiotic use for most people with sore throat because it can lead to organisms that are resistant to antibiotics.

The doctor will examine the throat and lymph nodes in the neck. Approach is the sequel to the throat swab test to determine the presence or absence of bacteria. Throat swab needs to be done if the diagnosis is suspected strep throat caused by streptococcal bacteria on the basis of clinical and epidemiological findings and patients not taking antibiotics.

Throat culture swab results usually are the only tests required. However, sensitivity to antibiotics also needs to be done on patients who are allergic to penicillin because of the streptococcus bacteria that are resistant to erythromycin.
