The patency of nasopharynx is closely related to oral hygiene. Bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms will multiply in the mouth, affecting the health of the nasopharynx. Therefore, regular oral cleaning can reduce the possibility of nasopharyngeal injury. Smoking and drinking should also be avoided, because these will cause the surface of the mouth and nasopharynx to become unsmooth and increase the risk of disease and infection.
When you feel uncomfortable in the nasopharynx, you need to contact a doctor in time for examination. Symptoms include sore throat, dry throat, dyspnea, snoring, suffocation during sleep, etc. The doctor may suggest taking photos of the throat or other tests to determine the cause and treatment. Sometimes, a smooth nasopharynx is not a symptom of a disease and does not require special treatment. However, if there is structural damage to the nasopharyngeal surface, surgery may be needed.
