Other Diagnostic Studies

  • Initial diagnosis is commonly performed with a tongue depressor.
  • A physician will use this tool to hold the tongue while examining the tonsils for swelling or any inflammatory type of responses.
  • A cotton swab analysis and throat culture may be used as a differential diagnostic technique to determine between strep throat and tonsillitis.
