Suggest Treatment For Recurring Tonsillitis
I had tonsillitis two times the last month, and now I believe I have it again. Is it bad to take antibiotics again for this? Also how long should I be on them...Last time I was on them for ten days. Im a 33 year old male that weighs about 185lbs. Thanks

Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I have read your query in detail. I understand your concern.
In case of Chronic Tonsillitis, if we talk about conservative management, i would advise you following:
1. Chlorohexidine Gargles at least thrice a day.
2. Warm saline gargles daily.
This is my best opinion for you based on available details. If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
