*'''Pharyngitis''' is often a part of upper respiratory and/or alimentary inflammation
 +
*May cause
 +
**Obstruction to airflow
 +
**[[Lungs - inflammatory#Aspiration pneumonia|Aspiration pneumonia]]
 +
*Acute inflammation passes through the same stages as in [[Nasal cavity - inflammatory#Rhinitis|rhinitis]]
 +
 +
*In '''pigs''', foreign material may lodge in the '''posterior diverticulum''' of the pharynx and cause inflammation, potentially perforation (also accidental in sheep during drenching) and fatal cellulitis
 +
**Inability to [[Deglutition|swallow]] due to the swelling may also be fatal
 +
 +
*In young thoroughbred '''horses''' [[Nasopharynx - hyperplastic and neoplastic#Pharyngeal lymphoid hyperplasia|equine chronic pharyngitis and lymphoid hyperplasia]] occurs due to chronic exposure to infection
