Synonyms and keywords: Fever and sore throat; sore throat fever; sore throat and fever; Sore throat fever

The most important differential diagnosis for disease that cause fever and sore throat at the same time are summarized in table below:

Disease/Variable	Presentation	Causes	Imaging finding	Treatment
Upper respiratory tract infection	Itchy, watery eyes Nasal discharge Nasal congestion Sneezing Sore throat Cough Headache Fever Malaise Fatigue, weakness Muscle pain	Influenza viruses	_	Symptomatic therapy: Decongestants Alternative medicine The use of Vitamin C
Peritonsillar abscess^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]^[2]^[3]^[6]^[7]^[8]^[9]	Severe sore throat Otalgia Fever A "hot potato" or muffled voice Drooling Trismus	Aerobic and anaerobic bacteria Streptococcus pyogenes.	On ultrasound peritonsillar abscess appears as focal irregularly marginated hypoechoic area.	Ampicillin-sulbactam, Clindamycin, Vancomycin or Linezolid
Croup	cough stridor but no drooling Hoarseness Difficulty breathing common cold Runny nose Fever	Parainfluenza virus	Steeple sign on neck X-ray	Dexamethasone and nebulised epinephrine
Epiglottitis^[10]^[11]	Stridor and drooling but no cough Difficulty breathing Fever Chills Difficulty swallowing Hoarseness of voice	H. influenza type b Beta-hemolytic streptococci Staphylococcus aureus fungi viruses.	Thumbprint sign on neck x-ray	Airway maintenance, parenteral Cefotaxime or Ceftriaxone in combination with Vancomycin. Adjuvant therapy includes corticosteroids and racemic Epinephrine.
Pharyngitis	Sore throat Pain on swallowing Fever Headache Abdominal pain Nausea and vomiting	Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus	_	Antimicrobial therapy mainly penicillin-based and analgesics.
Tonsilitis ^[12]^[13]^[14]^[15]	Sore throat Pain on swallowing Fever Headache Cough	Viral Adenovirus, Rhinovirus Influenza Coronavirus Respiratory syncytial virus. Bacterial; Group A streptococcal bacteria	Intraoral or transcutaneous USG may show an abscess making CT scan unnecessary.	Primarily affects children between 5 and 15 years old.
Diphtheria	Myocarditis Sore throat Malaise Cervical lymphadenopathy, Low-grade fever Paryngitis with or without pseudomembrane Systemic toxicity Facial paralysis to total paralysis	C. diphtheriae Rarely Corynebacterium species	X-ray: Diphtheric myocarditis: Cardiomegaly in CXR Bronchopneumonia	Diphtheria antitoxin Antibiotics may help in disease prevention
