1. Open windows frequently for ventilation. Maintaining air circulation is an effective measure to prevent and treat chronic pharyngitis. Dry indoor air and excessive cooling, heating or humidity can affect the defense function of the pharyngeal mucosa, causing functional disorders and abnormal sensation in the pharynx, which can eventually lead to chronic pharyngitis. Rinse your mouth and brush your teeth in the morning, after meals and before going to bed to keep your mouth clean. At the same time, preventing and treating oral and nasal diseases and eliminating inflammatory lesions are also helpful in preventing pharyngitis.

Avoid tobacco, alcohol, ginger, pepper, mustard, garlic and all spicy foods.
