8 Common Causes of Sore Throats

Settings

Since a sore throat may be caused by viral or bacterial infections, the condition may spread easily in areas where many people meet and interact. This is especially true in close spaces, such as dormitories, bars, pubs, or sports facilities. Children in schools or people in daycare centers are more susceptible to the common cold, which may trigger a sore throat as well. As a result, parents may catch the infection from their children. In many cases, it is hard to prevent your kids from being exposed to these triggers. However, knowing this could be helpful in taking some preventive measures. [7]
