3. Strep throat
Strep throat is one of the most common throat infections to ever plague mankind. The infection occurs when streptococci bacteria make their way into your throat and start to multiply. It can be spread when someone who is infected sneezes or coughs. The bacteria will be carried by the airborne droplets and could make their way into your throat that way.
In addition to a burning throat, you might also suffer from symptoms such as fever, rash, and vomiting if you’re dealing with a case of strep throat. Due to the fact that these infections are bacterial in nature, they can be easily treated through the use of antibiotics. However, you should never try to treat a viral infection with antibiotics as this will never yield any good results — and could actually lead to unforeseen consequences instead.
