Suggest Remedy For Swollen Tonsils

My 19 year old son has swollen tonsils with what appears to be yellow puss.. he has no pain, and no fever. This has been going on for about 3 weeks. I have him gargling with salt water, I don t feel this is helping. I am making him an appointment with dr, but any suggestions till he can be seen would be great.
