The pharyngitis an inflammation of the pharynx which felled both Martinez and Manny Ramirez in the heat of baseball's pennant race has so far been contained, but the people of Boston and indeed, the entire East Coast are not yet out of the woods. Forget SARS or West Nile Virus, this could be the epidemic that brings a region to its knees. And anyone who saw the movie "Outbreak" knows two things: Dustin Hoffman is capable of seriously overacting, and infectious disease is no laughing or even mildly entertaining matter. We asked the folks at the Centers for Disease Control headquarters in Atlanta for the full rundown on pharyngitis. They never got back to us, but we've seen enough episodes of "Scrubs" to offer up a quick tutorial as a service to concerned Page 2 readers.

Red Sox Throat ailment shelves Martinez By Bob Hohler, Globe Staff, 8/22/2003 Just as their mounting on-field woes posed one of their gravest challenges of the season, the Red Sox yesterday confronted another daunting obstacle when Pedro Martinez was sidelined with severe throat inflammation. ADVERTISEMENT The illness, which came on suddenly the previous night, forced the Sox to replace their ace with Casey Fossum in the finale of a pivotal three-game series against the A's and raised questions about whether Martinez will remain on schedule to face the Yankees in each of Boston's final two series against their archrivals. Martinez was on medication for an abnormally high fever and throat discomfort and was resting at home as the Sox prepared to the face the A's, according to team spokesman Kevin Shea. Team physician Bill Morgan diagnosed the ace's condition as pharyngitis, a severe inflammation of the throat, though the results of a battery of tests were pending, Shea said. The Sox said Morgan was unavailable to discuss the team's prized righthander. Manager Grady Little said Martinez, who leads the American League in ERA (2.32), will pitch again as soon as he is able, but the team could not estimate a recovery period until Morgan evaluates the test results. Pharyngitis can involve either a viral or bacterial infection and can be related to strep throat, among other conditions.

Her physical examination is remarkable for an ulcerative lesion with exudates in the left tonsillar fossa. She has no drooling or stridor. The remaining physical findings are notable for generalized lymphadenopathy; somnolence with arousability; and a generalized rash with macules, papules, pustules, and vesicles, which primarily appear on the face, trunk, and abdomen but not palms or soles. A CT scan of the neck is obtained to evaluate for a retropharyngeal abscess. The CT scan reveals an abnormal, asymmetric, soft tissue thickening at the floor of the mouth and at the base of the tongue, with epiglottic swelling and inflammation extending into the soft tissues of the neck. The parotid gland is not involved. The white blood cell count and blood chemistry findings are normal. Hint See the stain of a skin lesion.
