What should be paid attention to for acute pharyngitis?
Acute pharyngitis is a common and frequently occurring disease in otolaryngology. The main symptoms of acute pharyngitis include sore throat, dry throat, burning sensation in the throat, and itchiness. The main pathogens often include hemolytic streptococcus or Coxsackievirus. When acute pharyngitis occurs, it is first advised to avoid exposure to smoking, alcohol, irritative and spicy foods to prevent further irritation and congestion of the throat mucosa. Additionally, maintaining oral hygiene is required to prevent bacterial proliferation. Gargling with saline water can help keep the oral cavity clean. Also, sensitive antibiotics may be used orally or intravenously to eliminate acute inflammation. (Medicine should be used under the guidance of a doctor.)
