Yoga for throat infection

-

 The demarcation of throat  starts from the region  located behind the root of the tongue below and the soft palate above, this  region acts as a common passageway for the food as well as the air is known as pharynx.   The upper pharynx is known as Nasopharynx, a bit lower than that is Oropharynx, and the lowest section is known as Laryngopharynx.  The pharynx ends in the upper neck approximately at the level of the chin. From here it divides into two; the tubule which passes from the front of the neck is known as trachea , or the wind pipe which leads the inhaled air into the lungs.  Another tubule passed from behind the trachea which is known as esophagus, the passageway for the food towards the stomach.  Epiglottis, a cartilaginous lid like structure covers the opening into the trachea in order to prevent the food from falling into it, and blocking the air passage.  The closed epiglottis directs the food into the esophagus which descends into the stomach from behind the trachea.
