Chronic pharyngitis is a common ailment in daily life, especially during seasonal transitions. So what are the main symptoms of chronic pharyngitis? And what are some medicinal recipes that can be used for dietary therapy? The symptoms of chronic pharyngitis are relatively obvious, mainly including dryness, pain, and itching in the throat. Let's take a closer look at the main manifestations of complications of chronic pharyngitis!
Different individuals may have different symptoms of chronic pharyngitis. Those with severe symptoms may feel a very dry throat, while those with milder symptoms may only experience mild dryness. Chronic pharyngitis is mostly caused by inflammation. It usually presents as mild pain, with more pronounced pain during acute attacks. The pain may be localized on one side or in a specific area, and the exact location may be difficult to pinpoint. It may be related to dysfunction of the sensory nerves in the throat, inflammation, or allergic factors. The feeling of throat itching is also a form of "foreign body sensation" and resembles the sensation of ants crawling, which can easily lead to coughing.

Squash not only has beauty benefits but also has relatively high nutritional value. In autumn, extract the juice from squash and drink it after steaming it over water. This is used for long-lasting cough, excessive phlegm that is yellow and sticky, and discomfort or a hot and fishy taste when expectorating.
Almond and Snow Pear Stew
Take 15 grams of sweet almonds, peel and crush them, wash and peel 1 snow pear, cut it into slices, put them together in a bowl, add 20 grams of rock sugar, and add an appropriate amount of water. Place the bowl in a pot filled with water and stew for 30 minutes. Take it twice a day, morning and evening, for 3-5 days in a row.
