They say that the best folk remedy for tonsillitis is bed rest. Is that all? To begin with, let's understand what a sore throat is. This is an infectious disease that affects the tonsils. They are a filter that traps all pathogenic microbes that enter the body.
Therefore, they account for the main attack of the disease. Inflamed and
enlarged tonsils with white streaks of pus are a clear sign of this ailment. A true folk remedy for tonsillitis is
bed rest and warm drinking. But only this organism cannot be helped. It is necessary to rinse the pus from the tonsils, because rinsing is the best folk remedy for tonsillitis. It is purulent plugs that are the cause of fever. They delay the healing process. Instead of fighting the causative agent of the disease, the body spends energy on cleaning the tonsils. You can use such folk remedies against angina:
- Rinse with salt and soda. Proportion, roughly speaking, at your discretion. But note that it is better to put a little less salt. Rinsing should not injure already inflamed tonsils.
- Apple cider vinegar with honey. This is a great tool. It not only disinfects, but also draws purulent plugs from the tonsils.And honey, which is part of the rinse, softens the throat and reduces pain when swallowing. The proportion is 1: 1. The resulting liquid should be sweet and tasteful. If you add more apple cider vinegar, the product will be acidic and may injure your throat. We would recommend doing just such a rinse based on boiled water. The fact is that this tool in itself is tasty. And what is not used when rinsing, you can drink. Both vinegar and honey will help the body cope with the disease.
- Another way to treat sore throat with folk remedies is to rinse with a decoction of beets. A medium-sized root crop must be boiled. The resulting broth is used to rinse.
If angina is caused by Staphylococcus aureus, then it can be treated (except for antibiotics) with the Chlorophyllipt drug. The tool is not entirely folk, but it is it that fights this bacterium, even if it shows resistance to antibiotics.
Another folk remedy for angina is propolis. It’s best to lubricate the tonsils. How? We will tell below. So, you need to take propolis and alcohol in a ratio of 1: 5. Moreover, propolis must be crushed. This is best done with a hammer when the raw materials harden in the refrigerator. Insist the resulting fluid for 2 weeks. It is better to prepare this tool in advance, since it is necessary to lubricate the tonsils with it from the first days of treatment.
Propolis can also be chewed. Remember that when you use a good product, you will feel a burning sensation in the tongue and it is slightly numb. Honey is a real salvation for those who suffer from a sore throat. Effectively helps with illness and simple chewing of honeycombs for 2 hours.
But no matter what you do, everything can go to waste if, at the first improvement, you begin to violate bed rest and rinse schedule. And then complications can not be avoided, no matter what folk remedies against sore throat you use.
