What should I do if my throat is often inflamed? Self-healing will get better quickly!

People who like to smoke, drink and eat spicy food in daily life will make many people's throats unable to bear it. When your throat becomes dry, has phlegm, or has a sore throat, you can no longer do what you want. This is a symptom of throat inflammation. How can you regulate yourself?

Throat inflammation is a type of throat disease, which has many causes. The patient's local resistance is reduced due to cold, overwork, excessive smoking and drinking, spicy stimulation, etc., and pathogenic microorganisms (mainly hemolytic streptococci, pneumococci, influenza bacilli and viruses) invade the human body, causing throat inflammation. In addition, patients with malnutrition or chronic heart, kidney, or joint diseases, or people who are exposed to adverse working environments such as high temperature, dust, harmful irritating gases, etc. for a long time are also prone to sore throats.

When the throat is inflamed, many people will go to the pharmacy to buy some anti-inflammatory drugs, such as antibiotics. Long-term use of antibiotics will not only fail to cure sore throat, but will also cause the body to develop drug resistance and cause damage to the liver and kidneys. This is a big misunderstanding in treating sore throats. Many people also drink too much boiled water when their throat is inflamed. Drinking too much boiled water will only increase the body's excretion burden and will not play any important role in treating the symptoms of sore throat. This is the second biggest misconception about treating sore throat.

Let me provide you with some common methods of self-regulating sore throat, hoping to help you get rid of sore throat this morning.

1. Monk Fruit Tea

Preparation method: 1 monk fruit. Chop the monk fruit into pieces, brew it with boiling water for 10 minutes, and drink it at any time. Take 1 to 2 times a day, 1 piece each time.

Efficacy: Clears the lungs and eliminates phlegm, quenches thirst and moistens the throat. It is mainly used to treat chronic pharyngitis, dry and uncomfortable throat caused by insufficient lung yin and accumulation of phlegm and heat, sore throat and loss of voice, or cough and dry mouth.

I don’t know if you have noticed that in life, we often see teachers, broadcasters and other people who need to protect their vocal organs often chop monk fruit into pieces and soak them in water. It turns out that monk fruit tea has the effect of moistening the throat and relieving cough.

2. Olive honey tea

Preparation method: 3g olives, 3 pieces of Sterculia lychnophora, 3g green tea, 1 spoon of honey. First, boil the olives in clean water for a while, then brew Sterculia lychnophora and green tea, cover for a while, add honey and mix well. Take 1 to 2 doses daily.

I also like to drink honey green tea, which tastes quite nourishing. Plantago ovata is used for hoarseness caused by lung heat. It mainly clears heat and moistens the lungs, relieves sore throat and detoxifies, and moistens the intestines and promotes bowel movements. With the addition of Sterculia lychnophora, the efficacy of this olive sea honey tea will definitely be obvious.

3. Kumquat Honey Tea

Preparation method: Boil kumquat peel with rock sugar or honey to make juice. You can also add water to the juice and drink it. Kumquat leaves also have the effect of treating sore throats and can be boiled and drunk as juice.

Efficacy: Kumquat peel is rich in nutrients, contains vitamin C and calcium, and can eliminate throat inflammation. You can eat kumquats when you feel there is something foreign in your throat.

I remember when I was at home, my mother always liked to boil kumquats in water to drink. At that time, the editor felt that the taste of orange had become lighter and the taste was not good. It turns out that kumquat plus honey has such good effects. I will try it sometime later.

4. Two green privet tea

Preparation method: 3g each of green-calyx plum, green tea, and orange peel, and 6g of Ligustrum lucidum. First, crush the Ligustrum lucidum fruit, put it into a cup together with the previous three ingredients, and brew it with boiling water. Take 1 dose daily.

Efficacy: Nourishes yin and relieves sore throat, promotes qi and resolves phlegm. It is suitable for sore throat and discomfort caused by liver and kidney yin deficiency, rising of virtual fire, qi stagnation and phlegm accumulation, and foreign body sensation in the throat.

Fructus Ligustri Lucidi has the effects of nourishing the liver and kidneys, clearing away heat and improving eyesight. It is used to treat sore throat with significant results.

5. Massage Therapy

Use your thumb and index and middle fingers to rub both sides of the throat 20 to 30 times. Use your thumb and index finger to pinch the throat skin 20 to 30 times to make the area red and the throat hot. Press the Yifeng, Tiantu and Hegu points, each for 1 minute. Once in the morning and once in the evening.

Massage therapy is more effective for patients with chronic pharyngitis and the process is simple. The editor reminds you to pay attention to pressing the correct acupoints when using massage therapy.

After a sore throat, you should pay attention to adjusting your diet. Do not eat spicy foods such as hot pot and malatang, eat less chicken, beef, and mutton that can cause heatiness, and eat more duck meat. Choose foods that nourish yin and moisten dryness, such as lily, rock sugar, yam, coix seed, japonica rice, etc. In addition to paying attention to food, hot fumigation therapy can also be used for throat discomfort, itching, dryness or burning sensation. Pay attention to the combination of work and rest, avoid cold, pay attention to oral hygiene, and use your voice with caution.
