How to treat pharyngitis?

Patient's question:

My child has developed tonsillitis, and it has been 15 days. I am hesitant to give her medication due to concerns about potential side effects. She frequently feels uncomfortable in her throat, as if there is something stuck in it.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, chronic pharyngitis. If it is a localized pharyngeal inflammation, it is mostly inflammation of the pharyngeal lymphoid tissue. The symptoms are prone to recur. Chronic simple pharyngitis: commonly used mouthwashes such as compound boracic solution, furacilin solution, etc., to maintain the cleanliness of the oral cavity and pharynx; or lozenges such as iodopharyngeal tablets, mint pharyngeal tablets, etc., to treat chronic pharyngeal inflammation; Chinese medicine preparations also have a certain effect on chronic pharyngitis; locally, compound iodine glycerin, 5% silver nitrate solution, or 10% weak silver protein solution can be applied to the pharynx, which has astringent and anti-inflammatory effects; do not eat irritating foods.
