It is hardly about an angina and then when the sore throat is adjacent to a runny nose and cough. With the classical throat, snot and cough does not happen. Most likely, you got acquainted with tonsillitis, laryngitis or pharyngitis — Diseases that are caused by viruses and affect either pane, or nasopharynknaya, or pagan almonds.
Angina — The beast is more busy. She attacks them immediately. Conventional anti-frequency drugs do not give up, because it is not caused by a virus, but by bacteria — various staphylococci and fungi, which can be defeated only by antibiotics. These bacteria, as a rule, live in us constantly and are thrown into the attack at the moment when the body will weaken for some reason. Such a reason can be overcooling, physical overvoltage, other chronic disease, sharp temperature difference (Ice air conditioner, draft, ice cream, injured glass of soda).
Generally speaking, to diagnose itself «angina» — The case is ungrateful. And yet, about the symptoms of an angina you need to know at least in order not to delay the visit to the doctor. That's what you will feel with the sore throat:
- sharp and severe throat pain,
- Increased temperature,
- Sludge in the whole body,
- chills and headache.
If, while looking into the mirror, you will see white or dirty-gray raids in the throat, doubt almost never remains — angina.
Angina, by the way, are there too different. The easiest of them angina catarry , which captures only the surface of the almonds. Temperature with it can be quite low. But the lacunar angina begins immediately from the temperature under 40, the increase in lymph nodes under the jaw, and the almonds are blushing and plated. Finally, with follicular angina, the yellow points with a pin head are visible on the salted almonds, by type «Star Sky».
«The one who thinks is very mistaken that the main thing in the treatment of angina — make a sore throat, — The otorhinolaryngologist, Candidate of Medical Sciences Maxim Shubin. — Of course, the feeling of pain and lobs are not pleasant, so, you barely felt them, use one of paracetamol-based medicines (Nurofen, Strepsils, Coldrex), which will remove pain and lower the temperature. To remove toxins you need to drink a lot — Tea with lemon, cranberry sea, warm fruit juice or compote. But the next step should be a doctor call.
First, such a formidable disease is well masked under the angina, like diphtheria , and it needs to be found as soon as possible in order not to bring the case to the suffocation and the death of the patient. One hundred percent confidence in the diagnosis can only give a special smear of the throat. Secondly, the doctor must pick you up an antibacterial treatment scheme, as well as get blood and urine test, make a cardiogram to eliminate complications on the kidneys and heart.
Finally, local complications of an anemy can be very dangerous — Inflammation of the tissue around the tonsils, the first sign of which the sharp increase in pain on one side of the larynx, the restrictions of the chewing muscles and the mobility of the neck. This complication may develop for counting hours and requires immediate hospitalization and emergency measures, right up to surgical. In general, it is necessary to remember that the majority of complications develop just during the recovery period, when a person either throws taking medication, or ceases to observe. The minimum term of treatment should be 12 days plus two more weeks of gentle regime without supercooling and loads. The desire to save money for the work of the day, then will be paid for years of serious illness».
