Faringit or Angina?
Angina - this is what diagnosis puts 90% of people at the same time and begins to be treated independently. And what paradox is observed at the same time: if a person is really angina - it is treated «weakly» and does not drink medicines necessary for the disease. But if the banal pharyngitis - we drink antibiotics, which often leads to unpleasant consequences: without curing pharyngitis, we earn dysbacteriosis.
Let's try to figure out what distinguishes distillers from Faringitis, how to treat pharyngitis and why you need to run to the doctor if you really got sick.
Angina - This is the total disease of the body, in which not only almonds and the mucous membrane of the pharynx can be affected, but also the heart, joints, connecting tissue. What is the case?
Angina's causative agent is most often a beta hemolytic streptococcus group A. This microorganism is able to produce toxins penetrating into the blood, which by their nature, for the so-called antigenic structure resemble the heart muscle, connective tissue and tissue joints. Imagine what consequences it leads?
Antibodies designed to deal with infection in the body. But only they are not produced to harmful streptococcus, but to the heart muscle, tissue joints and connective tissue, and try to destroy these organs. Of course, this is not always happening, but with improper treatment or the absence of it is observed quite often.
Pharyngitis - This is inflammation of the mucous membrane. It is most often caused by viruses, 80% of the population is observed in chronic form and almost always proceeds easily and without complications, it can be treated with folk remedies.
What's the Difference
With an angina, the temperature of up to 38 degrees increases up to 38 degrees and more. With pharyngitis temperature or normal, or 37-37.5.
With an angina, the throat is more hurting in the afternoon. With pharyngitis, the most painful moment is the morning awakening.
With an angina, it becomes very painful when trying to eat something, drink, every sip becomes unbearable. In pharyngitis it becomes easier if you do, for example, a sip of warm tea.
With an angina, symptoms of intoxication are more pronounced, such as pronounced weakness, pain in muscles, nausea, dizziness, headache.
If you suspect that you have a distress, you must consult a doctor. Only antibiotics operate on Streptococcus! Do not try to treat the angle yourself! And make a month after an angina cardiogram for your childhood to eliminate the acquired heart disease, which may be a consequence of this disease.
If you have found the symptoms of pharyngitis, you should not worry hard. Try to start to heat the teaspoon of honey, drop there a few drops of lemon juice and dissolve slowly several times a day like candy. Put in nose with ordinary creamy oil so that it melted. The throat is wrinkled several times a day with a salt with iodine - this is a wonderful antiseptic. Paris legs, drink tea with raspberries and three days sit at home. All the symptoms will be very fast. With pharyngitis you can not drink antibiotics, because it is viral nature, and the antibiotic does not act on viruses, you should not torment your body.
Health to you and excellent well-being!
