How do throat cysts form?

Laryngeal cyst is a relatively common cyst, which is quite harmful to human health. If it is serious, it will often cause unbearable pain to the patient, and cause difficulty in swallowing and speaking, etc. There are many causes of laryngeal cyst. For example, congenital dilatation of the laryngeal sac in infants and young children may lead to such cyst phenomenon. For ordinary people, it is necessary to take precautions and quit smoking and drinking.

Causes of Throat Cysts:

(1) The laryngeal vesicle is located at the front end of the laryngeal ventricle, between the thyroid cartilage and the epiglottis cartilage. The size of the laryngeal sac in infants and young children is generally about 6-8 mm, and in some cases can reach 10-15 mm. If the cyst is congenitally abnormally expanded, a congenital laryngeal air cyst may form.

(2) The latter is correct. The laryngeal sac is first abnormally developed. Later, due to long-term exertion and breath holding, the pressure in the laryngeal cavity increases, such as chronic coughing, glass blowing, trumpet blowing, weight lifting, etc., the pressure in the laryngeal sac increases, gradually expands, and forms a laryngeal air cyst.

(3) The opening of the laryngeal sac is edematous and narrow, forming a one-way valve. Air cannot escape after entering, causing the sac to expand and form a laryngeal air cyst.

In addition, the editor needs to point out that laryngeal cyst is a common disease in life. So what should patients with laryngeal cyst do if they find the cause of the disease? They need to go to the hospital for treatment in time. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, surgical resection should be adopted. Another method is to use the neck transverse incision method to treat the disease of laryngeal cyst. Early detection can lead to early treatment. Only in this way can patients with laryngeal cysts be cured quickly!

Experts introduce methods to prevent pharyngeal cysts:

1. Quit smoking. Smoking can cause many cancers including pharyngeal cancer, lung cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, etc., so quitting smoking is the simplest and most effective way to reduce cancer invasion.

2. Scientific exercise and maintaining daily aerobic exercise can keep cells young and energetic.

3. Eat scientifically, choose healthy foods, eat less fried foods, and eat more grains and legumes.

4. Limit drinking. The number of times and amount of drinking should be limited every day.

5. Maintain a good mental state. Negative emotions may be a cancer promoter.

6. Have regular physical examinations to detect physical abnormalities and cancer risk factors, and reduce the risk of malignant tumors through timely adjustments and treatments.
