SORE THROAT SPECIALIST
SERVING MIDLAND, ODESSA, ANDREWS, SEMINOLE, TX & ALL OF WEST TEXAS

Sore throats can develop for many reasons, including dry air, seasonal allergies, postnasal drainage, acid reflux, exposure to smoke or other irritants, and viral or bacterial infections such as strep throat. While mild symptoms may improve with rest, fluids, and other at-home care, persistent or severe throat pain may require medical evaluation. Antibiotics may be prescribed when a bacterial infection is diagnosed, but they are not effective for viral illnesses.

If your child is experiencing a sore throat, or you have one yourself, visit WesTex Urgent Care for prompt evaluation, accurate diagnosis, and appropriate treatment. Our sore throat specialist can assess your symptoms, perform testing when needed, and help you understand the best next steps for recovery. Visit our walk-in clinics in Midland or Odessa, TX for proper care.

In rare cases, we might refer certain patients to specialists if the cause of the sore throat isn’t clear.
