Throat swab precautions

The precautions for throat swab sampling include the following:
1. Do not eat, drink, smoke or drink alcohol for about 2 hours before sampling. Do not chew gum, betel nut or other foods within 30 minutes before sampling.
2. When taking samples, try to relax and talk less. Try to cooperate with the doctor and reduce swallowing or throat clearing.
3. After sampling, leave the testing point immediately and avoid staying at the door.
4. After sampling, you can rinse your mouth appropriately to maintain oral hygiene.
The above are the things you need to pay attention to when taking a throat swab. I hope it will be helpful to you. If you have any questions, it is recommended to consult a professional doctor.
