Doctor's answer:
Apply 2%-5% silver nitrate to the throat, once daily, 2-3 times a week, which has anti-inflammatory and astringent effects. Alternatively, you can use traditional Chinese medicine such as pearl shell powder or Shuanglao Houfeng powder, applying a small amount evenly to the throat 2-3 times daily.
