How to remove pus from tonsils at home

If a virus enters the body, accompanied by hypothermia, and you also have low immunity, you will certainly begin to get sick. If you do not start to fight the virus in the body in time, it can develop into something more serious, for example, tonsillitis or tonsillitis. The whitish purulent cells in the throat are very painful, they do not allow a person to eat, drink, swallow normally. In addition, it is these purulent formations that cause high fever. If you get rid of them mechanically, the person will feel better - the temperature will drop almost immediately, and the sore throat will subside. Of course, it is best to entrust the cleansing of the tonsils to a specialist, but this is not always possible. If you follow all the rules, you can carry out this procedure yourself or to relatives at home.

How to remove pus from tonsils

1. Be sure to wash your hands before the procedure. Prepare a wide mirror, a spoon, a bandage, any antiseptic. Wipe with alcohol all objects that will come in contact with the mucous membrane of the throat. The place where you are going to carry out the treatment should be well lit - you should see pus on the tonsils.
2. For processing, you will need a long flat object - something like a medical spatula. If there is no such spatula, you can take a plastic stick or a clean pencil. At the end of the selected item you need to wind the bandage.
3. Moisten a bandage in an antiseptic. For the treatment of the throat, chlorophyllipt, a solution of furatsilina, a weak solution of potassium permanganate, soda-saline solution, zelenka or other disinfectants are suitable.
4. If you don’t have any medical supplies at hand, you can use honey and salt. Dip a spatula with a bandage first in honey, and then in salt. Salt is a shallow physical brush that, without injuring the mucous membrane, relieves ulcers. And honey is a natural antiseptic.
5. Sit in front of the mirror, take a spoon in one hand, and a spatula in the other with a bandage wound and moistened in antiseptic. Press the tongue down with a spoon so that it does not interfere with the procedure, and carefully put pressure on the purulent formations with a spatula. Of these, pus may begin to stand out. If this does not happen, simply scrape off the abscesses with a bandage. Be careful - do not damage the mucous membrane. Try to process and remove all pustules so that nothing remains.
6. After the procedure, it is very important to gargle with an antiseptic solution every hour. This will protect open wounds from infection and ingestion of microbes. Rinsing will also speed up the healing process of the mucosa.

Gargling to cleanse tonsils

Rinsing is a universal treatment with which you can get rid of small abscesses. Rinses also fix the procedure for mechanical cleansing of the tonsils from pus. If at the beginning of the disease, the feeling of a slight tickle in the throat is drowned out with several rinsing procedures - you can suppress the disease in its infancy.

Gargling is best with a warm composition. When rinsing, it is very important to observe the frequency of the procedures.

For greater effect, you can alternate solutions. Here are a few liquid recipes for effective gargling.

Pour two tablespoons of chopped chamomile and calendula grass into a pan, pour a liter of boiling water.Cook the composition over low heat for about half an hour, and then cover and let it cool slightly and insist. When the broth is warm enough, it needs to be filtered and gargled with it. Chamomile perfectly calms the mucous membrane, relieves pain and swelling. Calendula is a herbal antiseptic that destroys bacteria and germs.
2. You can gargle with the so-called "sea water", especially since the ingredients for this medicine are found in every home. A glass of warm water will require a teaspoon of salt, half a teaspoon of soda and a few drops of iodine. Stir the prepared solution thoroughly and gargle with it every two hours. It anesthetizes well, heals wounds and prevents the appearance of new inflammatory processes.
3. If there are severe ulcers and many small pustules on the throat mucosa, garlic rinse will help you. Two or three cloves of garlic should be grated and pour a glass of boiling water. Allow to cool slightly, and then gargle with this composition throat no more than three times a day. This tool is quite effective, but they can not be abused, because you can burn the mucous membrane.
4. Aloe and Kalanchoe leaves have a powerful anti-inflammatory effect. To prepare a rinse, you need to grind the leaves of an adult plant that is at least three years old. Squeeze the crushed leaves through clean cheesecloth and get a tablespoon of healing juice. Dilute the plant juice with a glass of water and gargle with this composition. Aloe and Kalanchoe relieve swelling of the tonsils and fight the inflammation in the abscesses.
