Patient's question:
Hello, where is the best place to treat tonsillitis? How can it heal on its own? Thank you for any assistance you can provide: Hello, where is the best place to treat tonsillitis? How can it heal on its own?...Doctor's answer:
Chronic tonsillitis is mainly caused by incomplete self-healing of acute tonsillitis, leading to repeated relapses. During the intermission, symptoms are not prominent, but may include a sensation of foreign body in the throat, burning sensation, throat itching, coughing, and bad breath. During childhood, the enlargement of tonsillar tissue can often cause respiratory obstruction, snoring during deep sleep, unclear speech, and even growth and development disorders. Due to frequent swallowing of inflammatory secretions or bacteria and toxins in the crypts, systemic reactions may occur, leading to symptoms such as indigestion, dizziness, fatigue, and low-grade fever. The human body may be affected by bacteria and toxins in the tonsillar crypts, triggering allergic reactions and causing various complications, such as rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatic fever, heart disease, and nephritis.It is best to visit a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) throat department for TCM acupuncture to drain pus, bacteria, toxins, and exudates. This can help expel toxins from the body, preventing them from accumulating internally and reducing immune function. The inflammation can then be resolved, promoting blood circulation, resolving stagnation, removing necrotic tissue, generating new tissue, reducing inflammation and pain, expelling phlegm and resolving masses, calming the mind, soothing the liver, regulating qi, and unblocking meridians. Local topical application of TCM herbal medications can allow the drugs to penetrate directly into the inflamed area, rapidly reaching the deep layers of the inflammation to thoroughly eliminate bacteria, viruses, and fungi, and repair damaged mucosal cells caused by infection. This prevents recurrence and restores normal function in the short term without harming the body.
Combining syndrome differentiation and treatment, as well as specialized formulas for specific conditions, provides a comprehensive evaluation and therapy. This approach offers effective treatment with no side effects and reduces the likelihood of recurrence.
