Tonsils suppuration, squeeze out the pus yourself

It is well known that many tonsils will become festering, so can they be squeezed by hand? In fact, it should be said that there is no need to drain the pus. You can get an injection, and it should be done continuously until the abscess disappears or shrinks to a certain extent. If there is no obvious improvement after three or four days, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a more detailed examination to minimize the harm of this disease to the body. Remember not to squeeze it blindly yourself to avoid greater side effects on your health.

Even if you want to squeeze them out, you can't do it yourself. You have to ask a doctor to do it. The position of tonsils is quite special, and it is easy to get infected if they are squeezed out. Just give it a few more days of intravenous drip and it will be fine. If this happens frequently, it is best to remove it. For conservative treatment, you can choose the Chinese medicine external paste Hongyi Yanping Patch

Tonsillar suppuration is mainly caused by inflammation, so in order to remove the pus on the tonsils, anti-inflammatory measures must be taken first. Antibiotics can be given for treatment. Since tonsil suppuration is mainly caused by streptococci, when choosing antibiotics, it is best to choose antibiotics that are more sensitive to bacteria. Because if the infection is not controlled, it may cause suppuration of the tissue around the tonsils.

When choosing antibiotics, it is best to choose antibiotics such as Pioneer. Cefazolin V (also called cefazolin), one of the first-generation ceftriaxones, has a relatively good effect on purulent tonsillitis. The daily dose for adults is usually around 5g, which needs to be infused for about 3 to 5 days. When children are given cefazolin, the dosage should be reduced appropriately. During the infusion of cefazolin, the pus on the tonsils will decrease day by day.

If the effect of cefazolin is not very good, cefuroxime sodium can also be injected. Cefuroxime sodium belongs to the second generation of cephalosporins. It also has a good effect on purulent tonsillitis. Whether it is the first-generation or the third-generation cephalosporin, a skin test is required before intravenous infusion. Only those with a negative skin test can be imported. During the infusion process, the patient's condition must be closely observed, and when an allergic reaction occurs, rescue measures must be taken promptly.

If you are allergic to cephalosporins, you can use azithromycin intravenously. Azithromycin is a macrolide antibiotic, which is mainly effective against mycoplasma infections, but also has a certain effect on streptococcal infections.

Purulent tonsillitis usually causes severe throat pain, which affects eating. In order to speed up healing, you can also take the Chinese patent medicine Liushen Pills orally or sublingually. Liushen Pills have a good therapeutic effect when taken sublingually, but it is very bitter. During the process of taking it sublingually, you will feel numbness on your tongue. After stopping the medication, the numbness will slowly disappear.

Because the Eustachian tube of children is horizontal, after the tonsils become inflamed, the inflammation will spread along the horizontal Eustachian tube to the middle ear, leading to the occurrence of suppurative otitis media. Therefore, when children develop purulent tonsillitis, they must be treated promptly.

When using cefotaxime to treat suppurative tonsillitis, try to avoid drinking alcohol, because alcohol increases the chance of anaphylactic shock caused by cefotaxime.

General treatment is to get more rest, drink more water, eat more vegetables and fruits, and try to avoid spicy and irritating foods.
