There has been phlegm in the throat, how to treat it?

Phlegm is actually caused by rhinitis. Purulent substances secreted by the inflamed parts of the nose are transported to the throat by nasal cilia and become phlegm. In this case, it is useless to swallow Shu Ning slowly. Only by taking good care of your nose and slowly curing rhinitis can we fundamentally solve the problem of phlegm.

If you usually feel something sticky in your nose, nose excrement and foreign body sensation in your nasopharynx, you can't swallow it if you want. Or eating hot food with a runny nose. As long as one of the above manifestations is met, it is caused by rhinitis. Inflammatory secretions in the nose are transported to the nasopharynx and attached to it, resulting in foreign body sensation. When it is discharged through the mouth, it becomes phlegm. These secretions contain a lot of bacteria and harmful substances. Sticking there for a long time will cause throat inflammation, which is what we call chronic pharyngitis. In severe cases, it will show cough symptoms. After reading the following information, you will know how to treat yourself.

Rhinitis is caused by long-term inflammation of nose, such as aggravation of cold, or physiological factors such as pregnancy or mechanical changes of nasal cavity structure, such as deviation of nasal septum. The inflamed part of the nose secretes a lot of purulent substances, which we call snot. Snuff contains a lot of germs and substances that can inflame tissues, so the accumulation of snot in the nasal cavity will worsen the inflammation in the nasal cavity, which is more likely to cause colds, forming a vicious circle of colds → rhinitis → more likely to catch a cold → rhinitis.

At the same time, these nasal mucus will be transported to the nasopharynx by nasal cilia, but it will stick to the nasopharynx because it is too viscous to slip into the stomach and be disposed of. These nasal mucus will constantly stimulate nasopharyngeal tissue, causing pharyngitis, and in severe cases, it will show cough symptoms. When the secretion comes out of the mouth, it will become what we call phlegm. So pharyngitis is usually accompanied by rhinitis.

The simplest and most effective way to solve this problem is to buy a yoga nasal wash pot, pour warm salt water into it, and let the water slowly soak and clean the tender tissue of the nasal cavity under the guidance of gravity to remove the snot on the surface of the tissue and the virus in the snot. Just wash it in the morning and evening, and be sure to wash your nose thoroughly when washing. After washing the nose, there is no irritant in the nasopharynx, and pharyngitis can disappear naturally. At the same time, the inflammation of various tissues will gradually disappear without the stimulation of nasal mucus. The previous vicious circle in the nasal cavity becomes a virtuous circle, and the diseased tissue cells will gradually be replaced by new healthy cells, and rhinitis will naturally get better, and people will not be easily infected. If you want to get early results when you start washing, you can increase the number of washes. As long as you clean it every time, the more times you wash it, the faster it will work. This is physical therapy, which is very safe for the body and can be washed with confidence.

If drugs are used, they only have short-term anti-inflammatory effect, and long-term use will increase the drug resistance of bacteria, which is not good for future treatment and the whole body.

Because washing the nose improves the resistance of the nose in an all-round way, it has a very obvious effect on preventing various non-infectious and infectious diseases such as colds and flu. In other words, cleaning the nasal cavity once after coming back from a crowded place can play a very good preventive role against all kinds of influenza.
