Treatment of tonsillitis usually involves keeping the patient comfortable while the illness runs its course. This supportive care includes bed rest, drinking extra fluids, gargling with warm salt water, and taking pain relievers to reduce fever. Frozen juice bars and cold fruit drinks can bring some temporary relief of sore throat pain and drinking warm tea or broth can be soothing. Strengthening the immune system is important whether tonsillitis is caused by bacteria or viruses. Naturopaths often recommend dietary supplements of vitamin C, bioflavonoids, and beta-carotenes—found naturally in fruits and vegetables—to ease inflammation and fight infection. A variety of herbal remedies also may be helpful in treating tonsillitis. Calendula (Calendula officinalis) and cleavers (Galium aparine) target the lymphatic system, while echinacea (Echinacea spp.) and astragalus (Astragalus embranaceus) stimulate the immune system. Goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis), myrrh (Commiphora molmol), and bitter orange (Citrus aurantium) act as antibacterials. Lomatium dissectum and Ligusticum porteri have an antiviral action. Some of the homeopathic medicines that may be used to treat symptoms of tonsillitis include Belladonna, Phytolacca, Mercurius, Lycopodium, Lachesis, Hepar sulphuris, Arsenicum, or Rhus toxicodendron. As with any condition, the treatment and dosage should be appropriate for the particular symptoms and age of the patient. Other demulcent herbs include teas made with slippery elm bark, wild cherry, and licorice.

Surgery. I've had this procedure done and I can tell you, it is very painful and takes about 1 year to fully recover. Contact your dentist for recommendations for a good surgeon in your area. The older you are the more painful the procedure but they give you a lot of pain meds to cope. I really encourage you that if you do go through with the surgery, force yourself to take it easy for the weeks following the surgery so you don't overwork yourself and cause more complications (like I did). Good luck... I hope you get to feeling better!!

Gargling with warmth salty water is a lifesaver for me. It precise away facilitates the discomfort yet alson facilitates kill off the micro organism too. I also use dispersible aspirin. Dissolve that in a small volume of water and gargle with that too, although not at the same time because the salt of route. Sorry to assert yet when you're that sick with it then I dont see you being thoroughly nice through Friday. Dont attempt to hurry lower back to 'normality' too without delay both as a results of the indisputable fact that would want to easily set you lower back some days.

You have to get antiobotics from your G.P. If you get it more than 4 times a year, you should ask to have your tonsils removed. It is worse the older you get, but should only take weeks to recover. You'll be off work for a few days to a week, the soreness will take a few weeks to go. Ask your doctor.

The doctor will give you antibiotics and it'll be gone in a few days, providing it's only viral. That's the only type i've ever had.
