Pharyngitis can be treated with nebulization therapy. Pharyngitis tablets can be taken orally to detoxify and eliminate infection, thereby relieving symptoms such as sore throat. However, prolonged use should be avoided due to the risk of dependency. The most effective treatment is minimally invasive surgery, which involves small incisions and delivers rapid results. Additionally, compound borax solution or warm saline gargle can be used. If throat pain affects eating, intravenous fluid infusion may be administered to provide nutritional support.
