Patient's question:
During the day, there are basically no symptoms, but at night while sleeping, the sounds are particularly loud, as if breathing is not smooth. When catching a cold, the tonsils swell and even become purulent, which also causes mesenteric lymphadenitis. When there are no cold symptoms, it's just the loud sounds during sleep.Doctor's answer:
Tonsillitis is caused by the accumulation of bacteria and secretions in the tonsil crypts. These accumulated bacteria continuously secrete toxins and spread throughout the body via the surrounding blood vessels.General Treatment
Strengthen the body and immune system. Acute tonsillitis requires thorough treatment. In clinical practice, I have found that Mange Yan Shu Lin granules are effective for treating tonsillitis, especially when combined with antibiotics such as amoxicillin. Drinking water regularly can help prevent recurrence. Gargle with lukewarm salt water in the morning and evening, ensuring it feels slightly salty. There are also specialized gargles designed for chronic tonsillitis, which are particularly effective in preventing recurrent episodes.
For those who experience frequent tonsillitis, the best treatment is tonsillectomy. After the surgery, the condition will not recur.
