ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hi sir, your treatment is correct, continue the medicines.
The tonsils increases in size when there is infection. Once we start medicines infection will reduce by a weeks time and thdn gradually the size will reduce.
If there is no pain then it means infection is coming to control. In case of chronic infection of tonsil , tonsils will be big insize only, u dont seem to have chronic infection, so dont worry.u will be fine in 2 days time.
