Posterior oropharyngeal erythema refers to redness and inflammation of the back part of the throat, typically observed during a physical examination. This condition can be a sign of various infections, such as viral or bacterial pharyngitis, or other inflammatory processes. It may be accompanied by symptoms like sore throat, difficulty swallowing, or fever. Diagnosis often involves a clinical evaluation and, if necessary, additional testing to determine the underlying cause.

What is erythematous exudative?

Erythema (noun): Redness of the skin caused by dilatation and congestion of the capillaries, often a sign of inflammation or infection. Erythematous(adjective): Relating to or characterized by erythema It seem to me that we speak for one and the same disease if we speak for Erythema exudativa or Erythematous exudative. If my assumption is right, I have the answer below for you: Erythema is a skin disorder due to an allergic reaction or infection. Erythema is a type of allergic reaction that occurs in response to medications, infections, or illness. Medications include:Barbiturate, Penicillins, Phenytoin, Sulfonamides. Infections include: Herpes simplex. Mycoplasma. Erythema is exudative, when there is exudate and swelling in the rash patches. This usually happens infectious erythema. Most erythema multiforme is associated with herpes simplex or mycoplasma infections. To the questioner: The term 'erythema' has frequent use than erythematous, so it would be better for the readers of answer.com to have the question as Erythema (instead Erythematous). Hope the someone will edit and correct it.
