If the symptoms of viral acute pharyngitis are mild, you can take oral antiviral drugs or use antiviral and antibacterial Chinese medicines, and if secondary infection occurs, you can take antibiotics. If the systemic symptoms are severe, you need to take bed rest, drink more water, eat more vegetables and fruits, and give local medication or take Chinese medicines, such as Liu Shen Wan, Yin Qiao San, etc. Acute pharyngitis is an acute inflammation of the mucous membrane, submucous membrane and submucous lymphatic tissue of the throat, caused by viruses, bacteria and chemical and physical stimuli, such as smoke stimulation causing acute pharyngitis. Acute pharyngitis is mainly localized, such as dry throat, sore throat, burning sensation in the throat, foreign body sensation, and the symptoms are more pronounced when the throat is empty than after eating. In immunocompromised patients, age factor or viral virulence is stronger, acute pharyngitis can cause systemic symptoms such as headache, fever, limb tenderness, and loss of appetite.
