One of the most common diseases that come to us along with the onset of colds are all kinds of viral infections, which are most often manifested by the appearance of sore throats. Sensations of persecution, burning, pain, inability to talk cause the patient only one desire - to get rid of the manifestations of infection in any way as soon as possible. One of the most popular options in this case is the aerosol for the throat. This is an affordable, inexpensive and very effective way to quickly return the voice, remove the sharp pain and regain the joy of life.

But before you run to the pharmacy, you should pay attention to the classification of aerosols and understand if they can help you.

Aerosol from sore throat: what symptoms can they relieve?

It is naive to believe that even the most high-quality and expensive drug will be able to help absolutely in all cases - in fact a sore throat can be caused by different reasons. When buying a medicine, you need to clearly understand what causes the symptoms that you want to relieve.

The most common causes of sore throat are pharyngitis and laryngitis. Inflammation of the mucous membranes of the mouth and larynx, accompanied by burning, dryness and perspiration, is called pharyngitis. If you have these symptoms, but there is no temperature (or it does not exceed 37.5), then you can safely assume that you have pharyngitis. To cope with his symptoms will help such an aerosol for the throat, like "Kameton", "Geksoral", "Ingalipt", "Stopangin" or "Collustan".

If the main symptoms that you are worried about are the hoarseness of the voice, the inability to breathe, or even the complete loss of the voice, then most likely it is a question of laryngitis or swelling of the mucous membranes of the vocal cords and larynx. Here the best options will be "Ingalipt", "Cameton" and "Geksoral." With not too severe symptoms (mild hoarseness, starting with a dry cough and choking) will help "Kollustan". This is a fairly gentle aerosol for the throat, which can be used for a long time, for example, with exacerbation of chronic diseases of the mucous membranes.

How to use aerosol medicines?

The main advantage that makes sprays for the throat an effective weapon in the fight against laryngitis and pharyngitis is the high concentration of therapeutic substances they create at the site of application. This allows you to fight infections "pointwise", hitting the disease directly where it originated.

But, in order to strengthen this process, before spraying the aerosol for the throat, it is worth cleaning the place of damage from excess mucus. To do this, first rinse the throat and mouth with warm water (water, do not add extra medicines or rinse the herbs with herbs). After this, you can start spraying.

To maximize the effect of the drug, you need to know a few simple rules:

• Spray is applied with a spray gun, which after each use is thoroughly washed with hot water;
• The head of the nebulizer is inserted into the oral cavity as deeply as possible, the tongue must be lowered.
• Ø At the time of aerosol spraying, it is necessary to hold your breath, as getting a spray into the lungs can lead to a reflex stop of breathing. That is why, using children's throat sprays, one should be extremely attentive and choose only tested medications that will not harm a small patient.
• Ø Aerosol from pain in the throat should be applied in different directions - two sprays should be covered as much as possible.
• After spraying the medicine, try not to swallow saliva for 3 minutes. During this period, the drug will actively interact with the affected mucous membranes and the effect of its use will be maximum.
• Ø During half an hour after using the spray, one should not eat or drink - this will reduce the therapeutic effect.
