Suggest Treatment For Inflammation In The Tonsils
I have one of my tonsils inflamed right now. It is on my right side. It is at times difficult for me to swallow. Also the tonsil is so swollen that it is touching my uvula. I don't have health insurance so i can't go to the doctor. I was wondering if you could tell me what this is and if there are any home remedies to make the swelling go down.

Hello ,
Thanks for consulting HCM
I have read your query and understand your concern . As far as tonsilitis is concerned I will suggest you to consult Ent surgeon for clinical examination and evaluation . Inmeantime you can take medicine like Cefixime or Azithromycin by consulting with local doctor . Do warm saline gargle 2 to 3 times a day .
Hope this will help you .
