Growth of normally existing bacteria

Detailed Answer:


Hi,

Thanks for your query.

There are normal bacteria present in the throat which do not result in any infection. The swab taken must have picked those normal bacterial and culture grew the same. It simply means that there is no serious infection in the throat which can be isolated.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
