Everything was fine, so why did chronic pharyngitis come to me?

If you often feel discomfort in your throat, dry and itchy throat, cough, and a foreign body sensation when swallowing. Or if you often feel nauseous and retching when brushing your teeth in the morning, then you may have chronic pharyngitis. The most torturous thing is that if you don't pay attention and eat spicy, raw or cold food, it will cause an acute attack. When you eat or drink, your throat feels like it is being rubbed by gravel.

Why am I the only one who has the bad luck to get chronic pharyngitis? Seeing other friends eating delicious food and drinking spicy food, I can only drink plain water... Don't lament the unfairness of fate first, but reflect on what you have done to cause chronic pharyngitis.

If you have been a picky eater since childhood, and you are reluctant to eat fruits and vegetables as if they were poison, then you will have to silently bear the dry throat, headache, fatigue, and poor spirits caused by vitamin deficiency.

People who like high-calorie foods and overeat should not be secretly happy. Excess nutrition may cause chronic hypertrophic pharyngitis, the main manifestations of which are foreign body sensation when swallowing, sore throat, and excessive phlegm.

In addition, staying up late, repeated stimulation, fatigue, etc. will lead to a decrease in the body's immunity. Coupled with repeated bacterial infections, chronic pharyngitis will occur over time.

In addition to the influence of bad living and eating habits, chronic pharyngitis is also a manifestation of systemic disease. Lesions in adjacent organs can cause chronic pharyngitis, such as acute rhinitis, allergic rhinitis, acute tonsillitis, etc. Chronic pharyngitis is also closely related to gastroesophageal reflux disease. Studies have shown that 60% of chronic pharyngitis and nearly 50% of foreign body sensation in the throat are related to gastroesophageal reflux. The food in the stomach refluxes through the esophagus and pharynx, and the repeated stimulation of gastric acid can cause burns to the pharynx, eventually developing into chronic pharyngitis and chronic cough.

After reading this, I can't help but exclaim, it's too difficult! Chronic pharyngitis is too easy to come to you. Not to mention the impact of environmental pollution, deteriorating air quality, occupational factors, etc., no wonder chronic pharyngitis is so common. Western medicine's treatment of chronic pharyngitis mainly includes anti-allergic treatment, vitamin supplementation treatment, nebulization inhalation treatment, etc.
Traditional Chinese medicine mainly uses acupuncture treatment, local acupoint blocking treatment, thread embedding treatment and other methods.

However, since there are many pathogenic factors of chronic pharyngitis, prevention is more important than treatment. Otherwise, even if it is cured by medication in time, there is also the risk of recurrence. For chronic pharyngitis, three-tenths rely on treatment and seven-tenths rely on care. Therefore, it is very important to adjust your diet in life. Eat more foods with high vitamin content, do not overeat, avoid tobacco and alcohol, eat less spicy, raw, cold, fried and pickled foods, so as to reduce irritation to the throat. Of course, it is also very necessary to go to bed and get up early, live a regular life, and avoid emotional excitement.

We should maintain good hygiene habits, brush our teeth in the morning and evening, and rinse our mouths after meals, which can reduce the accumulation of bacteria in the mouth and relieve inflammation. We can also improve our immunity by strengthening physical exercise, and defeating chronic pharyngitis is not a dream.
