Propolis with angina - effective treatment methods

Angina, or acute tonsillitis, is the respiratory pathology that most often occurs during off-season periods. The disease is characterized by severe sore throat, severe temperature jumps, weakness and apathy. Angina therapy is performed under strict medical supervision because of the high probability of serious complications - meningitis, pneumonia, abscesses. Otolaryngologists practice a complex approach to treatment, aimed at eliminating the cause of pathology and reducing the severity of clinical manifestations. Propolis with angina successfully copes with both infectious pathogens, and with extensive symptomatology of tonsillitis.

For the treatment of angina of any origin rinses with propolis and warm milk solution

are used. Features of treatment

Before the beginning of treatment of a sore throat a number of laboratory researches are carried out to establish the species belonging of causative agents of the disease. The matter is that yeast fungi, pneumococci, staphylococci, streptococci can provoke a respiratory pathology. Especially severe in adults and children is acute tonsillitis caused by the activated herpes viruses. For each type of angina, a special etiotropic treatment is required to kill pathogenic microorganisms.

Warning: All dosage forms of propolis are used in therapy of angina only as an additional remedy. With an average and high severity of infection, antibiotic therapy, antiviral or antimycotic drugs, is required.

The unique chemical composition of propolis( bee glue) includes biologically active substances that have a multifaceted therapeutic effect:

• bactericidal and bacteriostatic;
• is an antifungal;
• antiviral.

This means that propolis will help to successfully cope with angina regardless of its etiology. Immunomodulating activity of bee glue is of no small importance. Acute tonsillitis is always diagnosed in an adult and a child with a decrease in the body's resistance to infectious agents. Regular use of propolis restores the functional activity of the immune system. Strengthening the protective forces is an excellent prevention of recurrences of a chronic disease.

Angina is almost always accompanied by a rise in temperature above subfebrile values. Attacks of nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation develop in children and adolescents against hyperthermia. A mixture of milk with propolis quickly eliminates diarrheal disorders, while significantly accelerating recovery.

Treatment of angina with propolis in children and adolescents should be done only after consultation with pediatrician

Useful properties of bee glue

Propolis contains phytoncides, flavonoids, fatty acids, mineral compounds and vitamins that are quickly absorbed by the mucous membrane of the larynx. They penetrate even into deeply located soft tissues, stopping the inflammatory process taking place in them. This ability of bee glue allows using it in the therapy of all types of sore throat:

• follicular;
• catarrhal;
• lacunar.

In the treatment of acute tonsillitis not only its antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties are used. Due to the high concentration of natural waxes, propolis has a positive effect on the inflamed mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract:

• softens the irritated throat;
• eliminates persecution;
• restores microcirculation;
• strengthens immunity at the local level;
• promotes the regeneration of damaged tissues.

When the throat is rinsed with a diluted propolis tincture, the pharyngeal tonsils are sanitized. Pathogenic microorganisms are leached out of the lymphoid formations, as well as end products and intermediate products of the inflammatory process. At the initial stage of respiratory pathology, frequent rinses( 5-6 times a day) make it possible to avoid taking antibacterial drugs and sulfonamides characterized by numerous side effects.

Recommendation: Specialists of folk and official medicine advise gargling of the throat for propolis to people who care for patients with sore throat. Acute tonsillitis is easily transmitted by airborne droplets, and the use of bee glue will help avoid infection to family members or medical personnel.

Despite the natural composition of bee glue, it is capable of provoking a serious allergic reaction in the baby due to active ingredients penetrating all biological barriers. For the same reason, propolis is not suitable for the therapy of adults and children who are individually sensitive to any bee products. Absolute contraindications to this therapeutic technique include the following pathologies:

• urolithiasis;
• acute renal failure.
