Suggest Remedy For Oral Thrush Post Peritonsillar Absces Recovery

default
Posted on Mon, 2 Nov 2015
Question: I had a peritonsillar abcess infection four months ago. When I am eating a meal everything suddenly tastes bitter. The bitter taste persists for a few hours, as though my mouth is coated with a film. An A.P.N. originally blamed the sensation on the ampicillin anti-biotic which I took orally for several days after being discharged from a hospital. Is there something I can or should do?
