Elazığ Medilines Hospital otolaryngologist Op. Dr. Necdet Özer made statements about chronic pharyngitis, which is frequently seen in citizens in the summer months. Stating that chronic pharyngitis can be seen in all seasons, Op. Dr. Necdet Özer said, “Chronic pharyngitis can cause serious problems in summer. Chronic pharyngitis causes inflammation in the throat area behind our throat and tonsils, behind our small tongue, itching, tickling, scratching, and a feeling as if there is a foreign body in the throat. Chronic pharyngitis occurs due to the extremely hot and dry weather, especially in the summer months, leading to a dry throat. This is because the throat is extremely dry. Therefore, when we breathe, our throat becomes even more dry. Treatment of this, especially in chronic pharyngitis, it is necessary to drink plenty of fluids, stress and distress should be avoided. If there is reflux in the stomach, these should also be treated. When these are done, the patient's quality of life improves when we apply medical drug treatment to our patients. Patients are usually afraid of thinking that there is something bad in their throat because they suffer from these pains for a long time and their pain does not improve. This disease usually does not turn into a very bad disease and cancer, but if you do not follow the rules we tell you, if you do not stay away from stress and distress, if you do not consume plenty of fluids, chronic pharyngitis usually does not go away. Therefore, your quality of life decreases,” he said.
