    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of clinical syndromes presenting with pharyngitis.
    • Analysis of diagnostic approaches for sore throat.
    • Evaluation of current guidelines and controversies in antibiotic therapy for pharyngitis.

    Main Results:

    • Pharyngitis presents with diverse clinical syndromes requiring careful evaluation.
    • Differential diagnosis is key to identifying the underlying cause of sore throat.
    • Antibiotic stewardship is essential, with specific considerations for streptococcal pharyngitis.

    Conclusions:

    • Effective management of pharyngitis relies on accurate differential diagnosis.
    • Judicious use of antibiotics is recommended, particularly in light of antibiotic resistance concerns.
