Fan offers a patient who suffered from laryngopharyngeal inflammation for more than four years as a case in point. The patient had to take strength-sapping antibiotics and painkillers for 10 days every month, but since these failed to address the root cause of the condition, the problem continually recurred.
他舉一位罹患咽喉炎四年多的患者為例，這位患者每月總有 10 天必須吃抗生素、止痛藥，體力因此下降，病況卻不斷復發，無法根治。
