DIAGNOSIS:
ICD 10: J02.9; Pharyngitis, or sore throat, is often caused by infection. Common
respiratory viruses account for most cases, and these are usually self-limited. Bacteria are also
important etiologic agents, and, when identified properly, may be treated with antibacterial,
resulting in decreased local symptoms and prevention of serious sequelae.
DDx:
ICD 10: J05.10: Epiglottitis is inflammation of the epiglottis—the flap at the base of the
tongue that prevents food entering the trachea (windpipe). Symptoms are usually rapid in onset
and include trouble swallowing which can result in drooling, changes to the voice, fever, and an
increased breathing rate.
ICD 10: J02.0, Streptococcal pharyngitis. is an infection of the back of the throat
including the tonsils caused by group A streptococcus (GAS). Common symptoms include fever,
sore throat, red tonsils, and enlarged lymph nodes in the neck
ICD 10: J39.1 Retropharyngeal abscess. is an abscess located in the tissues in the back of
the throat behind the posterior pharyngeal wall (the retropharyngeal space). Because RPAs
typically occur in deep tissue, they are difficult to diagnose by physical examination alone
PLAN of CARE:
– Ibuprofen 800 mg 1-tab q8hrs, per 2 weeks.
Lifestyle and home remedies:
Drink fluids. Fluids keep the throat moist and prevent dehydration. Avoid caffeine and
alcohol, which can dehydrate you.
Try comforting foods and beverage. Warm liquids — broth, caffeine-free tea or warm
water with honey — and cold treats such as ice pops can soothe a sore throat.
Gargle with saltwater. A saltwater gargle of 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon (1.25 to 2.50 milliliters)
of table salt to 4 to 8 ounces (120 to 240 milliliters) of warm water can help soothe a sore throat.
Children older than 6 and adults can gargle the solution and then spit it out.
Humidify the air. Use a cool-air humidifier to eliminate dry air that may further irritate a
sore throat, being sure to clean the humidifier regularly so it doesn’t grow mold or bacteria. Or sit
for several minutes in a steamy bathroom.
Avoid irritants. Keep your home free from cigarette smoke and cleaning products that can
irritate the throat.
Follow up in 2 weeks.

Diagnosis:
1. Streptococcal pharyngitis (ICD J02.0)
Rationale: This patient has been experiencing fever, discomfort on swallowing consistent with the tonsillar enlargement noted on physical examination. On physical examination her throat is erythematous but there are no secretions on the pharyngeal walls. Based on the chief complaints, and physical examination this diagnose was made. According CDC (2020) Strep Pharyngitis is an infection of the Oropharynx cause by the S. pyogenes. S. pyogenes are gram-positive cocci. The patient with infection most often exhibits symptoms of sore throat, fever, and on examination Pharyngeal and tonsillar erythema, and Tonsillar hypertrophy with or without exudates (CDC 2020). The diagnosis chosen was supported by these findings.
Differential Diagnoses:
1. Acute tonsillitis Unspecified (ICD J03.90) According Mayo Clinic (2018) this infection can be cause by either viral or bacterial infections. A patient who is diagnose with is illness, most often complains of sore throat, swollen tonsils, difficulty swallowing, enlarge and painful lymph nodes and during examination a white or yellow coating or patches are usually visualized on the tonsils and stiff neck ( Mayo Clinic 2018). With tonsillitis prompt diagnose is imperative, so to initiate the proper treatment, to prevent any complications from occurring (Mayo Clinic 2018). If treatment is not effective, surgical intervention will most likely occur, to avert further severe health problems. This diagnosis mimics some of the symptoms Miss S. A. is experiencing, but it can be ruled out because no white or yellow coating was noted on the tonsils and she denies having stiff neck.
2. Peritonsillar Abscess (ICD J36) Usually occurs because of untreated Tonsillitis of Strep throat. It is Commonly known as “Quinsy”, which is uncommon, but it is a complication of Tonsillitis (Galioto 2017). This particular diagnosis affects mainly young adults, can be a recurrent problem if not treated properly, and cause potential dangerous complications, such as airway obstruction, aspiration, or extension of infection into deep neck tissues, so initiating prompt intervention is imperative ( Galioto 2017). Peritonsillar abscess is considered a medical emergency and prompt intervention is necessary. This diagnose can be rules out on the basis of the symptoms reported and symptoms noted on physical examination, Miss S.A, did not experienced trismus, or speak in a muffled voice tone.
