Tonsil enlargement after drinking is mainly related to alcohol stimulation and local or systemic immunity reduction after drinking to trigger infections.
1. Alcohol will not only stimulate the mucous membrane of the pharynx and tonsils, but also cause the body’s local or systemic immune system to reduce, which further leads to a large number of bacteria proliferation in the pharynx or tonsils, thus triggering inflammation of the pharynx and tonsils and swelling.
2. If there is a phenomenon of vomiting after drinking, the vomit usually remains in the tonsil fossa, and then the vomit can produce spoilage under the decomposition of bacteria, which can also lead to inflammation and enlargement of the tonsils.
3. After drinking alcohol can cause the tonsils local peripheral blood vessel expansion, which makes the pharyngeal bacteria easier to enter the pharyngeal mucosa or tonsils caused by tonsillitis, leading to further symptoms of tonsillitis.
If the symptoms of enlarged tonsils occur after drinking, you should seek medical treatment without delay, so as not to delay the condition, do not take antibiotics on your own after drinking, so as not to react with alcohol, causing discomfort. Pay attention to moderate alcohol consumption on weekdays, rationalize your diet, and avoid overwork.
