Some erroneous, but very common opinions helps dispel the head of the department of the upper respiratory tract of the Euro, throat and nose, candidate honey. Science Maxim Nikolaevich Shubin.
Miscending 1: Angina — this is whether acute tonsillitis, or the pharyngitis
This confusion exists not only in the minds of citizens, but sometimes meets even on the pages of popular medical publications.
Opinion of a specialist. Angina — An independent acute infectious disease that is localized in the entire field of lymph-pharyngeal ring, that is, affects the pane, nasopharynkny and pagan almonds. Angina's causative agents are microbes-saprophytes. These are conditionally pathogenic bacteria that are constantly present in the human body, but become pathogenic when he is weakened. For example, after supercooling or physical overvoltage.
In contrast, the pharyngitis and laryngitis angina are more often caused by viruses. Acute tonsillitis (inflammation of the sky almonds) can be both manifestation of angina and acute respiratory viral infection (ORVI). By the way, there is a delusion that angina occurs more often from the one who suffers from chronic tonsillitis or pharyngitis. In fact, it is equally sick and people with absolutely healthy throat.
Why it is important to distinguish an angina from the above diseases? If the sharp pharyngitis you transfer to the legs without much consequences, the angina can give formidable complications. If you have — ARVI, accompanied by acute laryngitis or sharp tonsillitis, and diagnosed «angina», That unjustified appointment of antibiotics will lead to a decrease in immunity, the destruction of the useful nasopharynx microflora, the appearance of resistant, that is, resistant to this medicine, bacteria strains.
Need to know the symptoms of angina — Rubber and cough with her, as a rule, are missing. But necessarily — sharply pronounced throat pains, elevated temperature, lubrication in the body, a headache is possible. If one and dirty gray raids were found in the throat — There is almost no doubt.
DISCUSLATION 2 - E: Angina is not so easy to infect
Opinion of a specialist. The main way of transmission of angina — Air-drip, so infection can be distributed even when talking at close range. With a sick person, you can not use the shared kitchenware, towel, pillowcases, nasal scarves. There is another way of infection — Alimentary, or food. For example, a case is known when up to 150 employees of the firm at the same time, due to the fact that there was a sneezing… Cook. That is why, like with the flu, the sick threshing in the sharp period you need to have as little contacts as possible.
Misception 3rd: If you start rinse the throat on time — Angina will pass
As they say in famous advertising, if your throat is sick, you can soar legs for a long time, make inhalation and drink hot milk, and you can simply dissolve special pills. But in case of an angina, all this will not be enough.
Opinion of a specialist. Today, goldstick staphylococcus, epidermal staphylococcus, is more often evoked with angina, the hemolytic streptococcus and fungal infections are less common. Such a bacterial infection, as a rule, requires the use of antibiotics — they will not only help to avoid complications, but also will prevent the sore throat in the coming months to elect you as a victim.
Misception 4th: contact the doctor not necessarily
Opinion of a specialist. If you have a sharply pronounced throat, combined with high temperatures, you must consult a doctor. Suffice it to say that under the symptoms of angina is well masked such a formidable disease as difftheria. It must be detected as early as possible — After all, today, almost none of the diphtheria patients dies from the suffocation, which can be neutralized with modern means.
Female outcome is almost always connected with the strongest intoxication, which immediately begins to hit the heart and kidneys. To detect diphtheria there are many indirect clinical signs, but one hundred percent confidence gives only a special smear of the throat — on Bacillus Leflera.
However, from the very first minutes, as you felt pain in the throat, you can begin the so-called symptomatic treatment. In this case, paracetamol-based preparations are suitable — Nooofen, Strepsils, Colder, which simultaneously remove the sore throat and reduce the temperature. Don't be afraid that this «Lubricheet» Picture of the disease before the arrival of the doctor. The only thing you do not need to do before visit — Take at least one tablet antibiotic.
Only a doctor should assign treatment. Big problem worldwide and in our country — Antibiotic resistant, that is, the appearance of antibiotic antibiotics bacteria. It occurs due to the uncontrolled use of drugs. First, when antibiotics are accepted «On the eye» and not designed for the type of bacteria that caused a disease. Secondly, when at the first relief, the patient stops the reception of antibiotics, which should last, as a rule, at least 5–7 days.
Ideally, before prescribing a medicine, you need to take a smear from the sore throat to find out which bacteria caused a disease, and at the same time their resistance to one or another drugs. In fact, in our conditions, it is almost impossible to do it, since there are no express tests with a quick issue, and antibiotics should be appointed in the first hours of the disease.
Therefore, various schemes of rational antibiotic therapy have been developed, which allow to influence the main groups of bacteria causing an angina. Doctor need 2–3 days to check the effectiveness of this or that drug — If there is no result, another must be assigned to another.
Stay one on one with an angina is not recommended also because it is necessary to be examined — analysis of urine and blood, cardiogram will show, did not complicate your «Simple» Diseases with such unpleasant illness as infectious myocarditis, endocarditis, pyelonephritis, jade. Angina is cusary consequences — Suffice to say that the main suppliers of rheumatism — These are patients with recurrent angns. Sometimes angrint causes sinusitis, bronchitis, other respiratory diseases. Unpriced infection gives repetition of the disease, which can further provoke chronic tonsillitis.
Finally, local complications are the most dangerous: inflammation of the tissues around almonds — Parapesillitis and parapharing. What it is? The almond is located fountaining a peculous capsule. The penetration of infection for this capsule causes the formation of an ulcer. A sharp increase in pain on one side of the larynx, restricting the mobility of chewing muscles, difficulty when turning the head from side to side — All this indicates the development of this life-threatening complication. It happens per day, and sometimes in a matter of hours and requires a speedy hospitalization and emergency measures, sometimes surgical.
Any infectious disease has a certain development — Angina is no exception. If the next day after receiving the antibiotic it became easier, it does not mean that the weeks on the hospital sheet are enough. It must be remembered that most complications develop precisely during the period of recovery. Minimum term of treatment — 10–12 days, and then two more weeks can not be administered by hypothermia, physical exertion. The desire to save for work day, then will be paid for years of serious illness.
Misception 5th: In the heat, it's hard to catch an angina
Opinion of a specialist. Recently, doctors began to characterize it and as a seasonal… Summer disease. The increase in the number of peers of sorry in the summer is a kind of comfort for comfort. Recall, could we have 15 years ago at the heat on any corner to get absolutely icy, covered with a carbonated drink?
Another example: before going to the room — Store or Posted place, it was possible to dwell from unbearable heat and even a stuffiness. Today, the installation of air conditioners is considered a good tone, and sometimes entering the store or office, you get into the cold straight from the summer. Note that if after a 30-degree heat you are in terms of +18° And moreover, you do not have a hectic health, the probability of getting very large.
Eliminate from the summer angina is not so difficult — Do not drink strongly cooled carbonated water, you should not sit directly at work directly under the air conditioner, «working on cold», Finally, sweat, it is necessary to avoid drafts.
