Sore Throat or Pharyngitis is
Sore Throat or Pharyngitis is a common ENT problem for which patients visit an ENT Specialist..
Geographically the throat is at a confluence and diseases of various organs affect the throat
- The Nose above
- The Throat by itself
- The Stomach below- by regurgitation and reflux.
COMMON CAUSES OF A SORE THROAT
1. Nose- a common cold, rhinitis, sinusitis leading to a post nasal drip will lead to a foreign body sensation in the throat. The infected sinus material that trickles into the throat can also cause a sore throat.
2. Throat - Smoke, dust, and other pollutants affect the throat directly. Smoking is a strong direct trigger for a sore throat. If you are a smoker and you have chronic sore throat the first thing you have to do is to quit smoking. Then there are things that we eat - apart from the usual culprits like spicy, fried food, pickles, sauces, chutneys, very cold water, ice, aerated drinks, there are also individual allergies that you should become aware of and avoid those items.
3. Stomach - Acid from the stomach can affect the throat very often, a condition called LPR (Laryngopharyngeal Reflux). Patients with a weak Oesophago Cardiac sphincter, hiatus hernia, obese, those who eat a large meal late into the night are more prone to this condition. When we lie down the effect of gravity on the body is lost and stomach contents/ acid can trickle up/ regurgitate into the throat. The typical symptom is choked sensation, dryness in the throat or a sensation of pins and needles in the throat. This is usually worse in the morning.
HOW TO AVOID A SORE THROAT
Be careful about what you eat - specially spicy, fired food, pickles and sauces, chilled/ aerated water. Drink water at room temperature.
HOME REMEDIES FOR SORE THROAT
1. Gargles- simple saline gargles are the best and safest. (Half a glass of warm water with half a tsf of salt). You can also do Povidone Iodine Gargles.
2. Sips of warm water with honey
3. Steam inhalation
WHAT NOT TO DO
- drinking very hot 'kadha' etc
