Types of purulent angina and how to recognize it

Doctors do not make a diagnosis of "purulent angina", since there is no such disease in medicine. However, this value exists in commoner. In fact, there are types of angine, which are accompanied by the development of guns in the throat (on almonds). These include:

• lacooner angina - with a careful inspection of the throat (most often inspection is carried out using a flashlight) you can see a white or yellow flare. Very often almonds are covered with such a raid locally. But even through a whiten look, it can be noted that the tonsils acquired a red color and become "scared". Sometimes, the throat can be so inflamed that all the fabrics can increase. This leads to difficulty breathing. Treat such a kind of angina is necessary in the hospital. Rinse and spray from throat pain can only slightly reduce pain, but do not remove the pussy. In this case, only washing with an antibacterial solution, which conducts a doctor.
• follicular angina - during the inspection of the patient must maximize the tongue to provide access to almonds. It is recommended to use a special spatula (in its absence it is allowed to inspect with the help of a teaspoon that must be sterilized). Almonds with follicular angina are significantly increased, have a red color (sometimes with a burgundy tint). It is noted the presence of round guns of a small diameter. If the disease is launched, the glans can significantly increase in size and burst. This dangerous process can lead to the development of abscess.
