Swollen,purple tonsils with other symptoms like sore throat, cough,body aches etc are acute tonsillitis which is mostly due to viral infection (adenovirus,rhinovirus)or some times bacterial ( streptococcus, staphylococcus etc) or spitocheatas etc.
The treatment is mainly antibiotics ( macrolides or quinolones or amoxycillin etc) with analgesic, antiinflammatories and antihistamines with mast cell stabilizers and other symptomatics for 7 to 10 days.
