In life, massage is commonly used to treat various diseases. Let's follow the editor to learn about the efficacy and massage treatment of the inner ankle point for treating tonsillitis.
【Causes of Tonsillitis】
1. The tonsil crypt is the most prone to bacterial and metabolic accumulation. As long as the humidity and temperature are appropriate, it is easy to be infected.
2. The tonsil crypt has sparse skin and often contains lymphocytes and other wandering cells, forming a "crypt epithelial mesh", becoming a place where the body fights against pathogens and toxins.
3. The tonsils are the gateway to the respiratory tract, and bacteria and viruses from the mouth and nose are the first to invade them.
4. There are many deep crypts on the tonsils. If tonsillitis occurs, the pathogens are hidden deep and easily form lesions. Whether it is oral or other medications, their effects are indirect and cannot effectively eliminate the lesions.
