Palpation : ..Enlarged and tender anterior cervical nodes ¡æ bacterial infection ..Enlarged and tender posterior cervical nodes ¡æ viral infection ..Throat inspection normal ¡æ check thyroid gland 3. Rapid strep test/CBC/ Throat culture ¡æ if high risk for complications (DM, rheumatic fever history, outbreak of a nephrogenic strain) Lat neck radiography ¡æ if drooling exists (epiglottitis?) CT/MRI ¡æ if retropharyngeal or peritonsillar abscess In patients whose clinical picture is consistent with influenza, common cold, or irritants, no further laboratory tests are needed. ..Cough, rhinorrhea, conjunctivitis, diarrheaµîÀÇ Áõ»óÀÌ µ¿¹ÝµÈ´Ù¸é Streptococcal infectionÀÇ °¡´É¼ºº¸´Ü Irritants, Allergies, viral infectionÀÇ °¡´É¼ºÀÌ ³ô´Ù. ..Pharyngeal exudates is not diagnostic for strep tonsillitis ; only 50% of patients with strep throat have exudates, and, of all patients with exudate, only 50% have strep throat.
