Angina is an infectious disease with local manifestation of inflammation of the lymphoid-pharyngeal ring, most often the palatine tonsils. Tonsillitis is an infectious-allergic disease with local manifestation (inflammatory reaction) in the palatine tonsils.
Treatment of uncomplicated forms of these diseases is carried out in outpatient and polyclinic conditions and at home. The most convenient and quite effective method of physiotherapy at home is laser (magnetolaser) therapy using devices that generate radiation of the near infrared part of the optical spectrum (wavelength 0.8 - 0.9 μm), in continuous or pulsed mode of generation of this radiation. Physiotherapy for angina is carried out using matrix emitters.
The method of exposure is contact and stable.
Impact fields: one field on the right and one on the left cutaneous surface of the neck directly below the angle of the lower jaw. PPM OR 5 - 50 mW/cm2. Magnetic nozzle induction 20 - 40 mT.
Radiation modulation frequency: the first 3-5 procedures are carried out with a frequency of 80 Hz, all subsequent ones - with a frequency of 10 Hz.
The exposure time for one field is 5 minutes, the duration of the treatment course is 7-10 procedures daily, once a day in the morning (the first two days it is possible to carry out procedures 2 times a day with an interval of 4-6 hours).
