Hi
Thanks for posting on hcm
I would suggest my patient ti get the tonsils removed
as there is recurrences of sore throat even after usage of antibiotics in few cases recurrent tonsillitis can be cured only by removing them and this could also lead to some other complications affecting kidney function and geart valves.
To avoid complications follow doctor's advice.
Hope this helped you.
Regards
