What is tonsil inflammation generally caused by?

The pathogen of tonsillitis is introduced through droplets and direct contact. , and usually hidden in the tonsil fossa. When the body's resistance is weakened due to fatigue, cold or other reasons, bacteria multiply rapidly, causing tonsillitis. In acute tonsillitis, the tonsil parenchyma is congested, polymorphonuclear leukocytes increase, and yellow and white spots can be seen on the mucosal surface.

Chronic tonsillitis has obvious pathological changes, and lymphocytes and reticular cells proliferate actively, tonsil hypertrophy. The mucosa epithelium of the pit is thickened, the surface is hyperkeratinized or a small ulcer is formed. Because of scar stenosis, the contents of the fossa are difficult to be excluded, which often becomes the focus.

1, acute tonsillitis mostly occurs in children and young people, and it is easy to get sick when the seasons change and the temperature changes. Fatigue, cold, dampness, excessive smoking and drinking or some chronic diseases are all inducing factors of acute tonsillitis. There are pathogens in the pharynx and tonsil crypt of normal people. When some factors reduce the body's defense ability, pathogens in the body multiply in large numbers, and external pathogens take advantage of it, thus leading to acute tonsillitis.

2. Chronic tonsillitis is often caused by repeated attacks of acute tonsillitis or poor drainage of the recess, leading to chronic inflammatory lesions in the tonsil recess and its essence. Sometimes it can also occur after some acute infectious diseases such as scarlet fever, diphtheria, measles and flu. Due to the infection of bacteria and viruses, there are purulent secretions in the tonsil recess, the drainage in the tonsil recess is not smooth, and the pathogens in the recess breed and evolve into chronic inflammation.

Tonsil inflammation is a common disease, and many people have experienced similar diseases. Be sure not to ignore it, and actively check and treat it, so as not to delay the illness.
