Lymphoproliferative
Lymphoid follicles are the lymphatic tissue of the human body. The tonsils and proliferators in the pharynx are all lymphoid tissues. Under normal circumstances, lymphatic follicles are not obvious, and when there is chronic inflammation in the pharynx, hyperplasia and hypertrophy are caused. This is what we often say clinically in terms of lymphoid hyperplasia. Lymphoid follicular hyperplasia is not a disease in itself, but a protective response of lymphatic tissue to inflammation, which is justified by the inguinal lymphadenopathy when inflammation of the lower limbs occurs. Pharyngeal lymphoid follicular hyperplasia does not interfere with the body, but it can cause a pharyngeal foreign body sensation. For lymphoid follicle hyperplasia, if the symptoms are not obvious, you can leave it alone. The fundamental problem is to treat the primary disease. What causes lymphoid follicle hyperplasia and hypertrophy? Without this cause, lymphoid follicles cannot be eliminated. For example, people who smoke and drink alcohol have pharyngeal lymphoid follicle hyperplasia. If you quit smoking and drinking, even if the lymphatic follicles are removed, they may still appear under the irritation of tobacco and alcohol in the future. Hyperpharyngeal lymphoid follicular hyperplasia and hyperemia and swelling are common symptoms of chronic hypertrophic pharyngitis.
