The throat gasping for air refers to the pharyngeal lesions that cause breathing difficulties, commonly seen in tonsil hypertrophy, epiglottis cysts, acute laryngeal edema and other diseases, feasible general treatment, drug treatment and surgical treatment.
1. Tonsillar hypertrophy: this sign is mostly caused by chronic tonsillitis, hypertrophied tonsils can block the pharyngeal airway, resulting in symptoms of breathlessness. Streptococcal allergens and vaccines can be used for desensitization, and placenta globulin and transfer factor can be injected to improve immunity. If conservative treatment is not effective, surgery can be taken to remove the enlarged tonsils.
2. Acute epiglottitis: this disease is mostly caused by infection, trauma, allergy and acute inflammatory reaction of neighboring organs, which is manifested as congestion and edema of epiglottic tongue surface and its lateral edge of aryepiglottic folds, followed by a feeling of breathlessness in the throat. The main use of penicillin, cephalosporin and other sensitive antibiotics and dexamethasone and other glucocorticoids administered intravenously, such as dyspnea obvious feasible tracheotomy.
3. Acute laryngeal edema: inflammation, drug allergy, angioneurotic edema can lead to laryngeal edema, causing dyspnea, usually accompanied by hoarseness, need to be treated for specific causes.
