Chronic tonsillitis: treatment and diagnosis of the disease

The natural barrier to micro-stimulation, which exists in the inhaled air, in humans are clusters of lymphoid tissue. Such formations accompany the upper respiratory tract and are called tonsils. The system of such organs forms a lymph glotopharyngeal ring and consists of seven units of tonsils.

Adverse factors, as well as the activity of pathogenic microflora, can provoke inflammation in the tonsils, and the largest of them is the palatine - the most prone to the risk of inflammation, known as tonsillitis.

Long-term inflammatory processes, low level of immunity against a background of weakened pathology of the respiratory tract of the body( tonsillitis, bronchitis) can cause chronic tonsillitis. The latter is divided into two types.

The compensated form of tonsillitis is accompanied by external visualization of the defeat of the tonsils on one or both sides. Nevertheless, the lymphoid tissue continues to fulfill its barrier functions, providing immune protection of the body.

Decompensated form of tonsillitis is accompanied by disorders of many organs and systems of man, the appearance of angina, tonsilogenous disorders, abscesses.

Possible consequences of

Disease A constant focus of infection in the upper respiratory tract leads to complication of breathing due to swelling of the mucous membranes. Isolation of pus from the lacunae of tonsils in the form of mucus or plugs is a danger to the gastrointestinal tract, disrupting the microflora of the digestive tract and poisoning it. The human immune system is in a state of constant tension, which provokes a low level of resistance to infections and viruses in a critical period.

Very often chronically, tonsillitis provokes angina, which is accompanied by the development of a paratonsillar abscess. The latter entails a complication in the form of phlegmon neck - a deadly disease. More than fifty pathologies and disorders lead to ignoring the progressing tonsillitis of the tonsils.

Faced with an obsessive problem ask the question: "How to cure chronic tonsillitis?" It is worth noting that, despite the achievements of modern medicine, the only correct method that produces lasting results, at the moment does not exist. Nevertheless, therapy of manifestations of inflammation of the tonsils should be carried out.

Chronic tonsillitis in a child is treated on the basis of an integrated approach to the immune system of the body. First of all, it is necessary to clearly identify the inflammation-provoking factors and reduce their effect to a minimum. The next step is equally important as the physical effect on localized inflammation, and measures to improve the immunity of the individual.

It is worth warning that chronic tonsillitis and its treatment is a time-consuming process, requiring a lot of patience and responsible attitude to the prescriptions. The neglected form of tonsillitis can also lead to complete degradation of the palatine tonsil with the loss of its last functions. In this case, recommended surgical intervention, which on the one hand will ensure the sanation of the larynx, and on the other - reduce the primary resistance of the body to external stimuli.

To avoid such undesirable consequences, it is necessary to carefully heal ARI and sore throats, as well as to treat inflamed tonsils.

Methods and means of treatment

• immunomodulation;
• washing of tonsils;
• deep ultrasonic reorganization;
• photodynamic therapy;
• organotherapy;
• medication;
• rinsing.

Treatment of chronic tonsillitis in children should start immediately. This is based on destructive changes in the very structure of the lymphoid tissue. The inflamed tonsil tends to cicatrize, thereby creating favorable conditions for the multiplication of bacteria in its folds and the further spread of infection, not only along the tonsil itself, but also along the respiratory tract.

Tonsillitis therapy can be started already at the first detection on the background of sore throat and pharyngitis. When removing acute symptoms of pathologies, a physician should try to avoid the development of destructive changes in the amygdala. Antibiotics for chronic tonsillitis are taken only by prescription and under the supervision of a doctor.

In the case of inflammation in the patient's calm state, it is necessary to start conservative treatment. The medicine for chronic tonsillitis is based on general sanitation of the oral cavity. It is important to perform a number of physiotherapy procedures to remove pus and purulent plugs from the tonsils, as well as restore the natural density and structure of the amygdala.

Against the background of medical prescriptions, phytotherapy can be applied in consultation with the attending physician. Treatment of chronic tonsillitis with folk remedies involves frequent rinsing of the throat with a warm decoction of chamomile, plantain and mint. Rinse should be done once an hour until a visible effect is achieved.

Treatment of chronic tonsillitis should not be stopped only by medical prescriptions. The way of life of the patient is also important. For example, do not eat sunflower seeds, ice cream. And when eating sweet candies and astringent beverages, rinse the larynx, disrupting the favorable environment for the development of pathogenic microflora.
