Patient: felt a foreign body against the throat, lips felt sticky with white saliva, throat was dry and painful, no cough. I had a history of pharyngitis before, which was more serious in 1991, and went to Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital. When I felt discomfort in my throat occasionally afterwards, I basically got better with medicine. This time, the symptoms have been severe for 2 months, and the doctor diagnosed chronic pharyngitis at the local People’s Hospital. The doctor diagnosed chronic laryngitis and prescribed the following medications: 1) Honeysuckle tablets; 2) Cephalexin extended-release tablets; 3) Blue Scutellaria oral liquid; and another one I forgot. (My mother has high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, and a bad stomach due to long-term medication) Xu Chengzhi: According to your symptoms, the diagnosis of chronic pharyngitis is basically established (laryngoscopy did not find too many problems), I think your mother’s foreign body sensation should be mainly at ordinary times, especially when swallowing saliva (many patients are like this), and there is no difficulty in eating and obstruction. At present, there is no cure for chronic pharyngitis, only control, and as age increases mucosal immunity is poorer, more likely to attack. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. It is to avoid irritating food (generally acidic, spicy, cold), but also to avoid fatigue and cold and flu, which is most likely to trigger pharyngitis. 2, chronic pharyngitis as long as it is well controlled, not acute attacks (such as sore throat, dry throat, phlegm, foreign body sensation and other symptoms), is not necessarily necessary to treat, by the current research has proved that pharyngitis can not be confirmed to induce cancer, so do not worry or panic. It should also be noted that most drugs for pharyngitis hurt the stomach, but a bad stomach, especially acid reflux, can aggravate the symptoms of chronic pharyngitis, and many patients have reflux pharyngitis, which should be treated promptly for stomach problems and reflux. I wish you good health!
