Hi thanks for contacting HCM... Noted you have repeated tonsil infection... So just now as you are having throat infection i will suggest you to do your throat swab and send it to laboratory for proper culture and sensitivity to guide correct treatment.... Then suitable antibiotic given.... Whenever infection is there antibiotic needed ...Only salt water gargle not effective... Mostly it will be from streptococci ..Amoxicillin effective against it... While having this avoid excess spicy food. Avoid fatty and fried food excess while having infection. Because of tonsillar enlargement you might have problem in eating. Sometime to relieve inflammatory swelling steroid might needed... Keep all this in mind and consult ENT surgeon... If repeated infections still tonsillectomy might needed.... DR.PARTH
