Throat Swab
Open your mouth and say "aaah" – when you do, the tonsils can be seen at the back of the throat and will be clearly red and inflamed. There's a tendency for viruses and bacteria to cause different types of inflammation. The Epstein-Barr virus, for example, often causes tiny red spots on the soft palate. Bacteria may leave a thin white membrane on the tonsils themselves. None of these symptoms, however, are reliable enough to diagnose the cause of tonsillitis from appearance alone, so often a throat swab is needed. Traditionally, such swabs are then cultured to see what bacteria are present, but there are also rapid tests that can give results in minutes or hours.
