Laryngitis can be treated by eating watermelon; there are no problems with that. Laryngitis is an emergency condition in the otolaryngology field, most commonly occurring in infants and toddlers, especially those between two to three years old. It can cause sudden high fever in patients, accompanied by hoarseness, swelling and pain in the throat, and a bark-like cough. As the condition worsens, patients may experience difficulty breathing and even suffocate to death. The pathogens commonly seen are hemolytic streptococcus or Staphylococcus aureus, with the vocal cords being primarily affected.

In terms of treatment, patients firstly need symptomatic anti-inflammatory treatment, oral or intravenous antibiotics, such as cephalosporins, which are effective. Additionally, the use of corticosteroids for nebulized inhalation helps reduce local congestion and swelling, allowing for recovery within about a week. A light diet is recommended during treatment, including watermelon, peaches, pears, and apples.

(The use of medications should be under the guidance of a qualified doctor.)
