Most are viruses: Toddlers are constantly chewing/sucking their fingers or touching the world around them.That gives them ample opportunity to sample every virus or bacteria  that exists in their environment. Their mouth/throat is the entrance to their immune system and tonsils that react when stimulated. Strep is sensitive to antibiotics but the viruses must run their course.

Accepted Answer

Not usually: Although a drug reaction called Stevens Johnson Syndrome usually affects the mucous membrane, I suspect that your current problem is just a progression of the initial viral infection causing the sore throat (assuming that strep was not documented).  If the problem persists, see your doctor or a dentist.  In the meanwhile , ask your doctor if you should continue with ZPak.

Question 8

Pharyngitis: It sounds as if you may be suffering from acute pharyngitis (infection of the back of the throat).  The majority of the infections are caused by viruses but they can also be caused by bacteria, such as streptococcus.  Not only do they cause pain in the throat, but they can cause other symptoms as well, such as fever, chills, headaches, generalized bodyaches (including back pain), cough, and fever.
