why not just go and have your tonsills out?
Or if you can't, eat ice cream to numb the pain

Tonsillitis treatment using Lime
Lime is one of the most effective remedies in the treatment of acute tonsillitis. A fresh lime squeezed in a glass of warm water, with four teaspoons of honey and a quarter teaspoon of common salt, should be sipped slowly in such cases
Tonsillitis treatment using Milk
Milk has been found valuable in tonsillitis. A glass of pure boiled milk, mixed with a pinch uf turmeric powder and pepper powder, should be taken every night for three nights in the treatment of this condition. It will bring beneficial results.
Last I always take 600-800mg of Motrin and this really helps! check with your doctor first ok. Also make sure you have some soup, yogurt etc, do not take on an empty stomach.
My wife also gives me something called "Golden Seal" unbelievable! 2 drops of liquid Golden Seal on each tonsil and immediately the pain goes away. It does taste awful but who cares. In less than one minute you can swallow again.
Good luck!

.Ice Cream, Jello, Popsicles, soups , mashed potatoes anything soft, Warm Tea and honey is great and a gargle of warmed salt water a couple of times a day works miracles... also hard candyor lozenges to keep throat moist... Try some Tylenol PM it helps with the pain and helps you sleep... Best thing is to get to a doctor and on a antibiotic so you'll get better faster. There are numbing throat sprays that you can purchase at your Pharmacy
Hope you feel better soon :o)

you need to go to the doctor! He will give you some antibiotics and if you are lucky he will give you a shot of antibiotics and you will be feeling a bit better by this afternoon. I go through this every year!
There is not much you can eat or drink with no pain. I maybe got a little relief from warm (not hot) lemon, honey tea.

I'm a regular sufferer of this so I really feel for you!
Soup is a good thing or though make it luke warm it can hurt...ice cream is another.
I try and eat roughage to be honest as it takes away the white blisters on your tonsills.
Garggle Asprin!! Drink lots of Juice!

My husband gets infected tonsils occasionally. He has to get anti biotics from the docs. The best thing to eat is soup and icecream, also drink a lot of fluids

Been going through that for 30 years. The best help is time. Try sleeping in a reclined position.

I had the same a couple of years back, stay in your bed for bed rest. If you can manage drink through a straw and try to eat some dry foods.
