What are the symptoms of epiglottic cyst?
Epiglottis is a headache for many people. Epiepiglottic cyst is a throat disease, also known as epiglottitis. Epiglottis is endangering people all the time, so many people don't think about tea and rice. So what? It's good for us to know in advance. Let's listen to the introduction of Tianjin otolaryngology experts. Clinically, it can be divided into congenital and acquired. Congenital epiglottic cyst is caused by enlarged laryngeal sac and filled with mucus. Acquired epiglottic cyst is caused by chronic inflammation, mechanical stimulation and trauma of larynx. Whether acquired or congenital, it always threatens the health of patients, so epiglottic cysts should be treated in time. So what? Understanding the symptoms of epiglottic cyst is very helpful for finding the condition in time. Symptoms of epiglottic cysts are generally divided into the following three categories: 1. Through laryngoscopy, it can be found that the epiglottis tongue surface will be congested, swollen and deformed (bulging). If abscess is formed, epiglottis swelling is characterized by yellow-white pus spots on the surface. When children examine their tongues, they can be observed as red and swollen as red cherries. If the examination is inconsistent with the author, use direct laryngoscope, operate gently, don't overdo it, pay attention to sputum suction, and keep the respiratory tract unobstructed to prevent accidents. Submandibular lymph nodes are swollen and tender. 2, check the blood, the total number of white blood cells increased, and the nucleus moved to the left. 3, sore throat, difficulty swallowing and eating, pain and inflammation may also spread to the root of the ear, general discomfort, soreness. Some patients may have inspiratory dyspnea. Babies react more seriously to epiglottic cysts, and the serious consequence will be heart failure. However, because the infection generally does not involve the vocal cords, there is no hoarseness and the pronunciation is normal. Warm reminder:? This question is briefly introduced.

In Tianjin Otolaryngology Hospital, fibrolaryngoscope was used for laryngectomy, and the parts that could not be detected by direct laryngoscope, such as epiglottis and laryngeal cavity, could be clearly seen. The throat can be examined in detail, and the vocal cord diseases such as pharyngitis and vocal cord polyps can be treated with their own surgical forceps. The operation time is short and the patients are basically painless.
