Acute pharyngitis is a common otolaryngological disease, with its main symptoms including sore throat, fever, dry throat, itchy throat, and primarily coughing. The main cause of acute pharyngitis is the infection of bacteria or viruses, which leads to the proliferation and congestion of the pharyngeal mucosa, along with the proliferation of lymphatic follicles, causing the patient to feel a foreign body sensation in the throat and triggering irritative coughing. In daily life, it is necessary to avoid spicy and stimulating food as well as cold drinks. Additionally, drinking honeysuckle tea and monk fruit-infused water can significantly alleviate the symptoms of acute pharyngitis.
