Don’t Underestimate "BaojuanThroat" (Hoarse Voice): Renshu Medical Experts Emphasize Symptom-Specific Treatment is Key
Recently, most of the first wave of COVID-infected patients have recovered, but many still suffer from lingering symptoms like cough, sore throat, and fatigue, with hospitals continuing to see high patient volumes. According to Red Star News, respiratory medicine departments in multiple Hangzhou hospitals have reported over 1,000 daily visits, with "BaojuanThroat" (a hoarse, raspy voice) being one of the main complaints.
How long does it take to recover from "BaojuanThroat"? Renshu Medical ENT specialists explain that COVID-19 primarily invades the upper respiratory mucosa, causing congestion and edema around the vocal cords and glottis, leading to sore throat, irritating cough, and phlegm accumulation. Symptoms typically peak within 3-5 days and gradually resolve as the acute phase of viral infection subsides, inflammation decreases, and the virus is cleared.
To alleviate "BaojuanThroat," Renshu Medical ENT experts recommend a three-step medication strategy:
Gargle with hypertonic solutions to reduce mucosal edema.
Use lozenges such as cetylpyridinium chloride, Huasu tablets, Caoshanhu, Xiguashuang, or Yanlishuang.
Apply throat sprays like Xiguashuang, Xilei San, Bingpeng San, or Kaihoujian. For bacterial-induced acute laryngitis, antibiotics (e.g., penicillin, cephalosporins) combined with metronidazole or quinolones should be used under professional guidance.
Home care tips include cold compresses to constrict capillaries (reducing pain and swelling), gargling with hypertonic saline, drinking honeysuckle tea, and using anti-inflammatory lozenges. Experts also advise staying hydrated, consuming fresh fruits/vegetables, and avoiding alcohol/smoking to speed recovery.
Persistent hoarseness and vocal cord swelling may lead to irreversible voice damage or complete voice loss, necessitating prompt medical intervention.
