In cold seasons, many people begin to have problems with the throat: it breaks down, then aches, or even angina attacks the person. But the fact is that this can happen not only in the winter or in the autumn, many people suffer from angina even in the summer.
Surely everyone knows what an angina is: the temperature is 40 degrees, the strongest pain in the throat, the inability to utter a single word and wild wiliness.
Angina is the inflammation of the glands
Angina is an infectious disease that has a local local manifestation (sore throat, bloating, redness) and general symptoms of intolerance (chills, loss of appetite, fever and weakness).
Classical angina is the inflammation of the glands, that is, the palatine mandible. However, in the human throat (anatomical name) there are four-lymphoid formations - they consist of lymphatic tissue. These include: lingual tonsil (located deep in the throat in the tongue), adenoid vegetations (adenoids located in the depth of the nose) and dvenubarnye tonsils (lymphatic tissues around the beginning of the auditory tubes, it is them that "pawns" with ear inflammation, in the airplane and in the sea) .
The scattered accumulation of lymphoid tissue is also the back wall of the pharynx under the mucous membrane, they have the appearance of pimples.
All these lymphatic masses are located around the circle and are "frontier guards" for infection.
The most complex in structure and interesting are, of course, tonsils - human tonsils. They represent a rounded accumulation of lymphatic cells along the sides of the pharynx between the arcs of the soft palate. Tonsils are very complex in their structure. If you look closely at them, you can see the holes. These pits are the lobules of palatine tonsils.
So that you can imagine the inner structure of the wind, imagine the Volga River in front of you. This long river, which has a multitude of tributaries, flows into the Caspian Sea, and the place where it flows is called the dale (estuary) of this river. So, if we compare, then the lacuna is the delta, we compare the arecus with the tributaries with scripts that go deep into the tonsils. The crypt is translated from Latin as "hidden". The crypts are still like the roots of trees, which grow deep into the soil. Near these crypts are growing lymphocytes-cells, which are responsible for human immunity.
Why do people need a lot?
The entire lymphatic tissue, here also include the palatine mintelins, created to fight against microbes that are entering the environment. We breathe in the air, but at the same time, microbes enter our body or we absorb them together with food. Microbes sit on the mucous membrane of the nasopharynx or pharynx. Lymphocytes immediately recognize the microbes and begin to produce molecules, antibodies, which eventually destroy them. So we prevent the disease. Naturally, this is a rather simplified system of development of immunity.
Immune protection of the body is a whole complex of antibodies and other useful substances that fight against viruses, microbes, and form the baby in adolescence and childhood. Therefore, it is very important to have all the lymphoid organs, especially for the baby.
When we grow up, or rather, when there is a sexual dysfunction, the lymphoid tissue becomes less important to us, because the protection against infections has already been formed. Lymphocytes eventually leave the tonsils and other lymphoid accumulations, the connective tissue appears on the spot, the tonsils become smaller and sometimes even disappear. This is how the atrophylymphoid tissue occurs.
However, everything that we have already discussed, applies only to people who have strong and healthy defenses. But you yourself know that every day healthy people become less, because of this bad ecology, bad habits, unhealthy diet, improper treatment and constant stress. Immune processes become weak and lingering, and as a result, diseases arise. With a decrease in immunity, a person develops angina and chronic tonsillitis.
Symptoms and complications
Angina often appears due to some kind of streptococcus. Angina is manifested otkomnebnyh tonsils and redness. Everything depends on the type of tonsillitis on tonsils, there can be raids on all tonsils, and can be only in lacunas. Or rather, to say that the form and presence of the plaque determines the type of angina.
As mentioned earlier, the localest bright symptom is a sore throat, because of which a person can not swallow his saliva, talk, drink and eat.
Very often during illness or immediately after it develop serious complications: inflammation of the heart muscle, damage to the heart, destruction of the valves of the heart, inflammation of the joints. If the doctor tells you that you need to stay and be treated for a long time, he worries about the fact that these complications can arise. Do not think that you will ask for it, follow the doctor's recommendations.
It is necessary to be seriously treated
Initially, what you need to do is isolate the patient, remember that the sore throat is transmitted by airborne droplets - with a kiss, a cough and a hiccough.
Next, you must ensure a strict bed rest during fever, while there is an elevated body temperature, and then somewhere in the week of the week you need to be in home mode (unless you, of course, were put in a hospital).
And the third - you always need to drink warm drinks: tea with honey, lemon and raspberries, infusions and herbal tea (St. John's wort, chamomile).
So that you can swallow normally, take painkillers that contain paracetamol - Tylenol, Efferalgan, Panadol.
And the most important thing is antibiotic treatment. The most effective drugs are the penicillin series and macrolides. It is necessary to take antihistamines to reduce local edema and excessive reactivity of the body.
Dangerous complications for life
Chronic tonsillitis can lead you to very life-threatening complications: suppuration in the depths, suppuration in the depth of the soft palate behind the palatine tonsil, and also pus between the muscles of the neck along the slits can penetrate into the thorax. It must be said that the latter is a very rare complication. However, the remaining complications occur more often, while a person can himself recognize their development. Immediately after the angina or during it there is a strong sore throat on one side, because usually complications are one-sided manifestation. Again, the temperature can rise, after 3-4 days the patient hardly opens his mouth, it is impossible even to put a teaspoonful of cereal in his mouth.
In such situations, you need to immediately call an ambulance to work in the hospital.
Do I need to remove the tonsils to an adult person?
Sometimes the patient and the doctor face a very difficult question: "Do I need to remove the tonsils?"
In fact, if a person develops complications: heart defects begin to form, suppurations occur in the neck, arthritis or glomerulonephritis starts, then the tonsils need to be removed unconditionally not only by adults, but also by children.
However, it happens that a person has recovered and no complications, but the sore throbs appear again and again periodically, the throat aches a bit, an unpleasant odor arises from the mouth, frequent sines, otitis and pharyngitis appear. The doctor and the patient begin to ponder, they need to remove the tonsils or not.
In this situation, too, there are clear signs: if a couple of courses of conservative treatment has failed and the symptoms do not disappear, then you need to remove tonsils.
Do I need to remove my child?
This is also a rather difficult question: remember that at first we talked about how much the baby needs lymphoid tissues so that immunity can be formed. In this case, the patient tries to reach the child before puberty with the help of conservative treatment. Excellent help homeopathic drugs. It is good to consult a baby with a specialist homeopath.
The homeopath is administered individually.
Quite often a child, this ailment simply "overgrows." However, if there are any allusions to complications: pain in the kidney , heart, joints and more than that, diseases are detected, then urgently remove the tonsils, think about your child's health.
If the amygdala has increased dramatically, it is very often done by "pruning" the tonsils.
