Patient's question:
What medication should I take for tonsillitis? My tonsils are swollen and touching my uvula, I cough constantly during the day, but I don't cough at all when I take a nap at night.Previous treatment and effectiveness: I took Cephalexin, which provided some help.
What I need: I just want to know what medication works well now.
Doctor's answer:
Tonsillitis is caused by the accumulation of bacteria and secretions in the tonsillar crypts. These accumulated bacteria continuously excrete toxins, which are then spread throughout the body via the surrounding vascular network. General treatment focuses on enhancing physical fitness and immunity, and acute tonsillitis requires thorough treatment. In clinical diagnosis, the effectiveness of treating tonsillitis is quite good, especially with anti-inflammatory medications such as amoxicillin. Drinking more banlangen water regularly can help prevent the condition. Using lukewarm salt water to wash your face in the morning and evening, with a slightly salty taste, can also be beneficial.
