Sore Throat Treatment Medford MA

Medford, Massachusetts, residents and visitors can rely on PhysicianOne Urgent Care for exceptional sore throat treatment. Whether you require treatment for strep throat or a viral infection like a cold or the flu, we can prescribe sore throat remedies that are appropriate for your specific needs.

What Causes Throat Soreness?

If you have a sore throat, you’re probably wondering what caused it. There are a number of potential reasons, including:

  • Viruses like the common cold and the flu
  • Bacterial infections like strep throat
  • Allergies
  • Nasal drainage
  • Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
  • Exposure to smoke or air pollution
  • Low humidity
  • Yelling

If your throat soreness persists for more than a few days, it’s important to seek treatment from a trained medical provider. Treatment will vary depending on what’s causing your throat pain—for example, antibiotics are typically prescribed for bacterial infections, but not pain caused by a virus—so it’s critical that you receive an accurate diagnosis.

No Need for an Appointment

Throat soreness typically isn’t severe enough to necessitate a trip to the emergency room, but you probably don’t want to wait for an appointment with your primary care provider, either. So, what are you to do? If you’re in the Medford area, you can rely on PhysicianOne Urgent Care. We offer sore throat treatment on a walk-in basis, so you’ll never need to worry about making an appointment.

I had to take my son in for an ear infection following a sudden change in temperament at daycare. He was inconsolable the entire car ride but when we got there and by the time we left this care facility he was back to his normal happy go lucky little two year old boy. I highly recommend PhysicianOne Urgent Care.
