Patient's question:
I have a sore throat and have been taking medication, but it still keeps recurring. Every time it comes back, I can't stop coughing and feel like I can't breathe properly. Sometimes I cough so hard that it feels like my lungs are about to come out, and it's very painful. The recurring sore throat is really bothering me. Is there any solution?Doctor's answer:
If you have recurrent chronic tonsillitis, consider whether it is related to allergic factors. Long-term exposure to allergens that irritate the throat can lead to repeated episodes. Additionally, improper diet, smoking, drinking beer, or consuming spicy foods may irritate the throat and cause recurrence. During acute episodes, antibiotics can be used in conjunction. On a daily basis, it is important to avoid smoking, drinking beer, and consuming irritating foods to prevent further throat irritation. Avoid shouting. If pus is present again, intravenous fluids or anti-inflammatory medication may be necessary.
