summary

Tonsillar hypertrophy is more common in children and adolescents, which is called "shi'e" in Chinese medicine. The external treatment of this disease can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty. Sun Simiao first promoted the cauterization method of traditional Chinese medicine. After liberation, the cauterization method was promoted by the health department. Now I'll tell you about the treatment of tonsillar hypertrophy by cauterization method of traditional Chinese medicine.

Treatment of tonsillar hypertrophy with traditional Chinese medicine cauterization

First, the self-made small iron was used to burn the tonsils, twice a week. According to the degree of tonsillar hypertrophy, 10-20 times was a course of treatment.

Second, the course of treatment of electric cauterization of traditional Chinese medicine is about 3 / 4 shorter than that of fire cauterization of traditional Chinese medicine, and the degree of tonsil hypertrophy is not completely proportional to the number of cauterization.

Third: after electric cauterization, a piece of black brown eschar was formed on the surface of tonsil. The surface layer was honeycomb network with different mesh sizes, or plain network. There were many dark gray, oblique or crisscross cord bundle like necrotic tissues in the deep layer by eosin staining. Residual lymphocytes could be seen in the gap of cord bundle like changes, and some were nuclear condensation or fragmentation, The carbonization on the necrotic surface was thicker and easier to fall off compared with the pyrolytic method.

matters needing attention

Warm tips: after 24 hours of electrocautery, the necrotic tissue migrated to the regional layer of normal lymphoid tissue, and some inflammatory reactions such as vasodilation, widened lymphocyte space (edema) and neutrophil infiltration could be seen. There was no significant difference between electrocautery and electrocautery. The inflammatory reaction disappeared after four or five days.
