Abstract
There are more types of tonsillitis and pharyngolaryngeal inflammation. Acute tonsillitis and neck inflammation can either be bacterial or viral in origin.
Chronic tonsillitis, which can last for long periods if not treated, is mostly caused by bacterial infection. Symptoms of tonsillitis include a severe sore throat painful and/or difficult swallowing, coughing, headache, muscle aches, fever and chills.
Common symptoms of mono include fatigue, loss of appetite, an enlarged spleen, enlarged lymph nodes, and a severe sore throat, sometimes accompanied by exudative patches of pus. Treatments of tonsillitis and pharyngitis consist of pain management medications and lozenges.
If the tonsillitis is caused by bacteria, then antibiotics are prescribed, with penicillin being most commonly used. Erythromycin and clarithromycin are used for patients allergic to penicillin.
Additionally, gargling with a solution of warm water and salt (herbal solutions) may reduce pain and swelling. In many cases přirozeof tonsillitis, the pain caused by the inflamed tonsils warrants the prescription of topical anesthetics for temporary relief.
Ibuprofen or other analgesics can help to decrease the edema and inflammation, which will ease the pain and allow the patient to swallow liquids sooner. When tonsillitis or inflammation is caused by a virus, the length of illness depends on which virus is involved.
Chronic cases and complications may indicate surgical treatment. Tonsillectomy (surgical removal of tonsils) as a choice for treatment.
