What's going on when my throat hurts and my ears itch?

If you have a sore throat and itchy ears, you should pay attention to whether it is caused by acute pharyngitis. Because many people are prone to such conditions in life, you should also pay attention to the correct treatment methods, but be careful not to use antibiotics indiscriminately.

1. In acute pharyngitis, systemic toxic reactions such as fever, fear of cold, headache, body aches, poor appetite, dry stool and thirst may also occur except sore throat. If not treated in time or if recurring attacks occur, it may turn into a chronic disease; if the infection spreads upward and affects the ears and nose, it may lead to acute rhinitis, sinusitis, and acute otitis media; if it develops downward, it may invade the larynx, trachea and other lower respiratory tracts, causing acute laryngitis, tracheitis, bronchitis and pneumonia; if pathogenic bacteria and toxins invade the blood circulation, it may cause systemic complications, such as acute nephritis, sepsis, rheumatism, etc., which are extremely harmful to the body.

2. Currently, most drug treatments are for temporary control of the disease. Taking too many antibiotics is harmful to the human body because the abuse of antibiotics may lead to an imbalance of normal flora in the throat. It will cause bacteria to become more resistant to drugs and the body's immune function to weaken, making the disease recur and difficult to cure. If this type of drug is used for a long time and repeatedly, it will not only cause bacterial resistance or dysbiosis, but also cause side effects such as liver and kidney damage. Therefore, the use of antibiotics is generally not recommended for the treatment of pharyngitis, and reasonable treatment methods should be adopted under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Low-temperature plasma technology is used to treat pharyngitis, which overcomes many drawbacks of traditional drug treatment and invasive surgery in the treatment of throat diseases. It uses the energy of low-temperature plasma radio frequency to ablate and reduce the proliferative and hypertrophic pharyngitis of the posterior pharyngeal wall lymph follicle tissue at a lower temperature (about 40 to 70 degrees), thereby reducing tissue damage, greatly alleviating the patient's pain and shortening the recovery period.
