What Causes Severe Phlegm In Mouth While Suffering With Tonsillitis?

I have had tonsils that look like I have tonsilitis. I have so much spit in my mouth I could fill a cup in about 30 min. When I swallow it feels like I m swallowing a razor blade. A chest pain follows the contents as I swallow. I have been on azrithomicin for 3 days. I haven t eaten food in a week. I don t know how to proceed

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
It seems that due to having infection in throat or on tonsils you have more salivation and feeling of severe pain.
Continue with antibiotic till full course and you will feel relief as infection controls.
Take some analgesic medicine as needed.
During pain relief take some nourishing food, fruit juices.
Avoid spicy and junk food.
Do Listerene gargles.
Ok and take care.
