Suggest Remedy For Extreme Pain In The Right Tonsil
Hi,
I'm in need of some help, please. A few days ago I had what the doc at urgent care called tonsillitis and prescribed amoxicillin. About a day into the course, all my symptoms cleared up (fever went away, sore throat went away, etc), but my right tonsil started hurting pretty badly. Several days later I've still got this terrible pain in my right tonsil...it's a sharp, stinging pain that feels almost like my tonsil has been injured (scratched maybe?) or almost like swallowing glass. My ear is kind of bothering me, too. As I said, I've got no other symptoms...and while I have larger tonsils anyway, the right one isn't particularly swollen and it's not red. Please help!

Hello,
Thanks for consulting HCM,
Read your query, as you have sore throat , painful tonsils this can be due to throat infection you can take medication like Azithromycin (if you are not allergic ) for three days , you can take one Capsule vitamin B suplement , Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day .
If your pain continues you wont get releif after taking medication then consult physician or ENT specialist for examination of throat.
Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.
Regards
Dr. Priyanka tiwari
