Hello dear
Thanks for your query at Hcm
Pain and whitish coloration on tonsil might be because of the infection .
Your already on second round of antibiotics . My recommendations are complete dose of antibiotic as prescribed by doctor wait for response . There is no need for other medication.
You may do salt water or betadine gargles that would decrease infection .
Regards
