What Is The Cure For Cough And Swollen Tonsil?
Hello, I have a throat cough caused my swollen tonsils. My tonsils appear red and lower than they usually are, apart from cough syrup what else can I do to help me sleep better. It's worth mentioning that I've had it for two days but only got bad last night.
Thanks,
H

Hi,
From history it seems that you are having acute tonsillitis.
You require one course of antibiotic like Azzithromicin for 3 days.
Continue with cough syrup.
Do salt water gargling daily.
Avoid cold drinks and junk food.
Ok and take care.
