Laryngitis usually cannot be cured on its own. First of all, the cause of the disease needs to be clarified, such as infection, gastroesophageal reflux, etc. The amount of phlegm can be reduced and cured through medication and other treatments under the guidance of a doctor.
1. Infection: If acute laryngitis is caused by bacterial infection, antibiotics and glucocorticosteroids can be given orally or intravenously, e.g. cefepime, methylprednisone, etc., to reduce inflammation and eliminate laryngeal edema; patients with viral infection can apply antiviral drugs such as ribavirin and nebulized inhalation of budesonide suspension and Mucosolvan to reduce the amount of sputum.
2. Gastroesophageal reflux disease: If chronic laryngitis is caused by reflux of gastric juices and other refluxes, the first step is to improve living habits, abstaining from spicy, sweet and sour stimulating foods, avoiding oversatiety at dinner, not eating before bedtime, and needing to apply proton pump inhibitors under the guidance of a doctor, such as omeprazole, and so on.
It is recommended that when the patient laryngitis, timely consultation, identify the cause, under the guidance of the doctor standardized medication.
