Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 24 years old this year. This morning when I went to bed, I suddenly found that my throat was particularly sore, especially when swallowing saliva, it was very painful. After a careful examination, I discovered it was chronic tonsillitis. I would like to ask what should be done for chronic tonsillitis?Doctor's answer:
Intravenous administration of penicillin-class drugs or cephalosporin drugs requires a skin test before use. Intravenous infusion can only be performed if the skin test is non-allergic. Generally, symptoms will improve after 7-10 days of continuous medication. During this period, it is essential to drink plenty of warm water, maintain a nutritious and healthy diet, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits to supplement vitamins, avoid spicy and irritating foods, exercise moderately, and maintain a good mood.
