Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Tonsillitis is caused by the accumulation of bacteria and secretions in the tonsil crypts. General treatment involves boosting the body's strength and immunity. Slow Yan Shun Lin granules are commonly used for treating tonsillitis and are quite effective. Adding anti-inflammatory drugs, such as amoxicillin, can further enhance the treatment. Drinking more Radix Isatidis water daily can help prevent the condition. Gargling with lukewarm salt water in the morning and evening, until a slightly salty sensation is felt, is also beneficial. There are also specialized gargles designed for chronic tonsillitis, which are particularly effective in preventing recurrent episodes. For those who suffer from recurrent tonsillitis, the best treatment is to have the tonsils removed. After the surgery, the condition will not recur.
