Follicular sore throat: urgent medication

Very often, unbearable pain in the throat ends with a diagnosis such as follicular angina, which is characterized by an abnormality of the lymph nodes in the region of the tonsils of the sky, in simple terms, the pathology of the follicles is observed. There is internal inflammation, which is accompanied by an increase in glands and visible reddening of the oral mucosa, as well as the appearance of enlarged follicles filled with purulent masses that can combine, forming even abscesses.

It should be noted that this anomaly occurs in a complicated form and very often gives significant complications to the work of other organs. It is important to track the dynamics of this disease. Follicular angina is accompanied by a strong intoxication of the body with the disorder of a number of internal organs. The course of the abnormal process in case of illness implies suppuration, enlargement in size and dissection of abscesses, which is why follicular tonsillitis requires timely treatment.

It can be safely asserted that follicular angina, the symptoms of which are very clearly manifested, is a rather dangerous disease that can lead to a number of complications (especially if untimely or incorrect treatment). Everything begins with a sharp jump in body temperature to 40 degrees, while the patient feels weakness in the whole body, pain in the muscles and joints, heaviness and other unpleasant sensations in the heart, violation of the pulse and the strongest chills. Since there is intoxication in the body, there are severe headaches and a feeling of nausea, so an abundant drink will be the first help in the fight against angina. But the most important symptom is a sharp pain in the throat, which not only hinders normal swallowing, but also gives off unpleasant sensations in the ear.

If the diagnosis of follicular sore throat is confirmed , how to treat this disease should be decided only by a qualified specialist who, first of all, performs a general examination. Very often, such an examination reveals a sharp increase in the lymph nodes under the jaw, and they can reach the most incredible sizes, which sometimes do not allow even to normally turn their head. There may also be increased leukocytosis, but for the patient, stool retention, a sharp loss of appetite and other abnormal digestive processes should not be surprising.

However, it is important to understand that the patient's disease can occur simultaneously in two forms, such as lacunar and follicular angina. Symptoms are the same, since they are expressed by similar visual white-yellow raids prevailing in the mouths of lacunae.

So, the duration of treatment of follicular sore throat can last up to a couple of weeks, but in order to finally recover, it is necessary to adhere to bed rest and observe all the recommendations of a specialist. In addition, when new symptoms appear, you should immediately report to a specialist so as not to miss the possible development of complications. So, the main feature of the treatment is the use of a large amount of warm drink in the form of beef broth, herbal teas and fruit juices of low acidity. Thus, the pathogens of infection will be "washed out" from the body, significantly reducing the intensity of inflammatory processes and reducing intoxication. In the treatment usually prescribed antihistamines, antibacterial drugs (mandatory), immunomodulators and vitamin complexes, and in addition, it is always necessary to rinse the sore throat (special medicinal solutions, decoction of medicinal herbs, solution of soda or salt).

It is important to remember that untimely treatment of such a pathology as follicular sore throat can cause many complications. If we talk about nearby organs, then otitis, acute laryngitis, lymphadenitis and phlegmon of the neck are possible. Also, complications include myocarditis, rheumatism, pyelonephritis, orchitis, and sometimes there is a skin rash and hives. If the angina threatens an abscess, then urgent surgery is necessary.
