Acute recurrent pharyngitis, advised to increase immunity.
acute recurrent pharyngitis. advise to improve immunity
rule out chronic sinusitis which may lead to post nasal drip and causing pharyngitis also look for LPR
anxiety and depression are one of the reasons for stomatitis aphthus ulcers. if the depression is treated then I think she will be relieved
There is scarring of anterior pillars. Underlying mucosal disease is to be addressed. RECUURENT URTI, are probably because of unaddressed mucosal disease. Kindly consider a referral to Dermatologist and a mucosal biopsy. Review her medication, antidepressants are known for their anti cholinergic side effects that might cause dry mouth, stomatitis superadded secondary infection. Antibiotic, analgesic, mouth gel, gargles relieve only acute symptoms and not the reason that's causing the infection to be recurrent.
Acute pharyngitis wth uvelitis , advice improve immunily , mouth gargle, antibiotic
check out other symptoms like mild fever, weight loss cough and go for HIV, HBSAg screening
Mostly nutritional cause in this case specially when it is related to Depression,kindly get her peripheral Smear of blood and Rule out Anaemia and Nutritional Causes.
