Suggest Treatment Pus Formation In The Tonsils

I have an infection in my left tonsil. My doctor has given me azithromycin but after taking the entire dose I still wasn t cured. Then I consulted an ENT specialist and she has given me Amoxiclav for treatment. This is now my three days of taking Amoxiclav but as I have observed, there are still no changes. The tonsil doesn t hurt, but it has a dot of pus on it. Please help.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Continue the full course of antibiotics. You can also do throat gargling with antiseptic oral solution. If there is no response a throat swab may be required.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
