Epiglottitis is often difficult to cure, especially acute epiglottitis, and blindly waiting for it to heal itself often leads to a dramatic increase in the inflammation of the epiglottis and even the risk of respiratory distress and asphyxia. If a patient has acute epiglottitis, targeted anti-inflammatory and anti-infective treatment is required. If the degree of epiglottitis is relatively mild, oral antibiotics such as amoxicillin capsules, cefprozil tablets, levofloxacin tablets, etc. can be used in combination with Chinese medicines such as Yiqing capsules and Liushen capsules to clear heat and detoxify and reduce swelling. If the degree of acute epiglottitis is more serious, it is often necessary to take the treatment measures of intravenous infusion of anti-infection, and also need to combine the appropriate amount of dexamethasone and other hormonal drugs to avoid the risk of respiratory distress, or even asphyxia.
