If a patient simply has a sore throat, it may not necessarily be a new coronary. It may be a cold, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, or other diseases that cause a sore throat. It is not possible to determine that it is neo-coronary (novel coronavirus pneumonia) simply by the symptoms of a sore throat. Novel coronavirus pneumonia is usually characterized by cough, fever, and general malaise. Depending on individual differences, some patients may also have symptoms such as chest tightness, nasal congestion, sore throat and diarrhea. However, these are not specific symptoms and can occur in many diseases, such as colds, pharyngitis and tonsillitis, where bacteria, viruses and inflammatory substances in the organism can stimulate the mucous membrane of the throat and cause symptoms of sore throat, and usually cough, sputum and runny nose. Therefore, you cannot judge whether you have a new coronavirus just by a sore throat. If you have a history of exposure to related confirmed cases and a history of travel to high-risk areas, it is recommended that you go to a hospital for a novel coronavirus nucleic acid test and chest CT examination for clarification.
