Remedies for Chronic Pharyngitis and Throat Inflammation

1. Remedy for Chronic Pharyngitis with Sugar-Soaked Kelp

Wash 250 grams of kelp, slice it into thin strips, and blanch in boiling water. Then, mix it with white sugar and let it marinate for 3 days. Consume a small plate of this mixture once a day for 15 consecutive days. This remedy is effective for alleviating symptoms of chronic pharyngitis with yin deficiency and internal heat manifestations such as dry throat, irritability, and warmth in the palms and soles. After symptoms improve significantly, avoid consuming greasy and spicy foods immediately to prevent irritation. To prevent recurrence of pharyngitis, maintain a light and balanced diet for an extended period.

2. Watermelon Rind Tea for Throat Inflammation

Boil 250 grams of watermelon rind until reduced to a large bowl of liquid. Add a small amount of rock sugar and serve chilled. This tea can help treat throat inflammation.

3. Tongue Root Exercise for Throat Inflammation

The tongue root exercise involves closing your mouth, pressing your tongue tip against your teeth, and rotating it clockwise 18 times, then counterclockwise 18 times. Following this, swallow your saliva three times. It is recommended to perform this exercise once in the morning and once in the evening.

4. Raw Garlic for Throat Inflammation

For this remedy, choose single-clove garlic with purple skin. Initially, it may cause tears and oral mucosa irritation, but you can spit it out anytime without biting into the smooth exterior. Gradually, as you get used to it, you can chew on it. This method is also effective for oral issues such as toothaches and hoarseness.
