It refers to the disease of laryngeal nucleus characterized by fever, sore throat, swelling and swelling of laryngeal nucleus, resembling a silkworm moth, or yellow-white purulent blood on the surface, or swollen, hard and dark red laryngeal nucleus. Single moth occurs on one side, and double moths occur on both sides [1]. See "Young Branches of Lily" and Wu Kun's "Six Sets of Needle Prescriptions". Milk moths are also called moths, milk geese and single and double meat moths [2].
Symptoms One or both tonsils are swollen and painful, and there are yellow and white pus spots on the surface [3]. It occurs in the laryngeal nucleus on both sides of the throat, either left or right, or both sides, with redness and pain [2]. Moths are arranged on one side, and double moths are arranged on two sides, which is named because it looks like a moth's abdomen [2]. It is characterized by swelling and pain on one or both sides of the laryngeal nucleus, yellow and white purulent secretions on the surface, bad breath and constipation, thick and greasy tongue coating, unpalatable soup, cold and fever, and sudden onset. It is equivalent to tonsillitis in modern medicine [2][3].
