A needle for washing the lacunae of the tonsils is a modern means of manipulation used by doctors in ENT practice in the treatment of tonsillitis.
Using a needle made of stainless steel, the otorhinolaryngologist washes the lacunae of the tonsils and removes their purulent contents.
From a medical point of view, washing the lacunae of the tonsils is one of the methods of effective conservative treatment of chronic tonsillitis, in which washing occurs under the pressure of a medicinal solution and bacteria and plaque accumulating on the tonsils are removed, leading to bad breath and other troubles.
The thing is that the anatomical structure of these accumulations of lymphoid tissue is such that they have many depressions (lacunae) and irregularities (crypts), which create prerequisites for food retention, dead epithelium and leukocytes, on which staphylococci and streptococci multiply. Therefore, it is very important to wash the tonsils in time and thoroughly, leaving no chance for bacteria to flourish even in the farthest corners.
In chronic tonsillitis, this procedure should be performed as often as possible, for example, on your own, at home using a saline solution: one teaspoon of salt per glass of warm water, the solution should not be swallowed, but spit.
