Tonsillitis Symptoms, Causes, and Treatment [Dr. Claudia]
What are the tonsils and when is a sore throat more than just a sore throat? Watch this video to find out more about tonsillitis symptoms, causes, and treatments.
We might associate thoughts of tonsillitis with images of characters from movies and shows in the hospital, but tonsillitis doesn't always mean you need to get your tonsils removed. If you get a tonsillitis diagnosis, it just means that your tonsils, located at the back of your throat, are swollen. If you have tonsillitis, look out for a sore throat and pain when swallowing, especially when accompanied by a fever, headache, swollen glands in the neck, or feeling unwell.
A sore throat doesn't always need treatment and can go away by itself. However, if you're having trouble breathing, or severe trouble swallowing, you should schedule an appointment with a Babylon doctor to discuss treatment options. They will make recommendations for next steps so you can get back to normal as soon as possible.

The worst thing is the swallowing. Even water or saliva hurts so much to get down. Also the earache and jawache

I've dealt with the pain for like 4-5 days before getting antibiotics and I thought I would go insane from it. I couldn't swallow my own spit, couldn't sleep, drink or eat because of how much it hurt. Two days after I started the treatment the pain started to fade, I would honestly rather break my hand than go through that again. My tonsillitis, tooth ache and ear infections were hell, anything in the head area is unbearable

I couldn't swallow my own spit from day one I got it. Had to spit in a cup next to the bed. I couldn't get any food nor water to give me energy. The pain just trying to swallow was beyond what I could explain. I passed out when I tried eating some soup. So I ended up in intensive care for 5 days. Day 3 two specialists came in with sedative that dentists use and they asked me to just let it get back down my throat as much as possible. Within 20 minutes I couldn't feel anything in my mouth, it was all numb. So then they gave me hard bread to eat and guess what, the bread cut up the blisters and I started spitting out blood with yellow chunks. That was their secret plan all along. I pray for anyone that has to go through what happened to me.

I feel blessed by the gods bc I’ve had multiple dangerous virus’s such as swine flu. And scarlet fever but when you have tonsillitis because of the flu that’s when it becomes very painful but luckily this time around I’m on my 3rd day of having tonsillitis but my symptoms of a fever have gone so now it’s just one remaining swollen tonsill, wish me luck that if finishes it’s strangely fast recovery tomorrow 🙂

what about chronic tonsilitis? i have it since i was 11 years old and now i'm 18 years old. It hurts once every month
I have a question. I have throat ulcers and tonsillitis what should I do? It’s been a few months and I don’t have any pain. It’s still there tho. I have a fear of the doctor so I don’t know what to do. Someone please I need some advice
I would rather get Covid than go through this again. I’ve had shivers all night keep having to change my clothes. Every symptom under the sun - from not being able to smell to not being able to swallow. I ended up in emergency A&E and they straight away diagnosed me with tonsillitis and prescribed me antibiotics. I’m allergic to penicillin so taking clarithromycin. The worst part is my runny nose I’ve gone through 6 toilet rolls. I thought I would need a day off work but here I am day 2 with slight improvement from the meds. Best of luck to anyone with this please go to the doctor!
Hi everyone, I had tonsillitis in January and I recommend taking ibuprofen to help ease the pain when swallowing as well as to ease swelling. Also, the doctor gave me amoxicillin, which cured it in days. You will find that you have a greatly increased appetite while recovering. This is normal because your body expends a lot of calories to deal with this. Goodluck folks, there is light at the end of the tunnel I promise.

@@tausifalsiam1389 it took me about 3 weeks to start eating normal again, but I was able to eat soft foods like banana, soups, smoothies and yogurt. It doesn’t hurt as bad eating those, it will hurt around the first few days you have it and maybe a little later on as well but after that it should start getting slowly easier. The most pain that I noticed was probably swallowing saliva. I recommend warm water with lemon and honey, it really soothes the throat and doesn’t hurt much. My pain was really bad but that’s probably because I was eating hard foods, because I didn’t know I had tonsillitis.

This pain is unbearable. Just got sick with tonsillitis for the first time and I'd rather get a cold that suffer this immense pain when swallowing. I'm drowning myself with teas and soups. Its easier to drink hot liquids than room temp drinks. I try forcing myself to drink room temp juice and it hurts so much that I make a weird face movement to swallow and it ends up going up my nose.. I tried gargling salt and warm water, didn't work. My mom suggested gargling hydrogen peroxide and one of my tonsils are back to normal. I've tried doing throat & neck massages to alleviate the pain and still, today day 5 my right tonsil still hurts. 🤢
The worst pain ever! I’m on day 5 right now, antibiotics doesn’t seem to be working :(
Why does it keep coming back?? Could it be something else. I’ve been put on anti both times. Negative for strip and mono even took my yearly test that we should be taking every 6 months when sexually active everything negative!
I've had Tonsillitis on and off for about 10 years now let's say 5 times a year so i can deal with the pain but i don't like the high temperature i always get

Samuel Espitia Try Virgin Coconut Oil or VCO. Swish it for 20 minutes 2-3 times a day. After 1-2 days you’ll feel the healing effect and then continue doing it up to 7 days. Very safe and very effective! God bless! :)

I have slight pain when swallowing, my ears moderately have pressure and it looks like I have two sets of tonsils on each side of my throat(Normal tonsils on top and big knots below them). I haven’t ate in 3 days because food particles feel it doesn’t go down properly.

Tonsillitis doesn't last for more than two weeks so you probably had something else
I’m on day 3 - I noticed it Wednesday morning and by night I had flue like symptoms until Friday. I took one ibuprofen every 4 hours and it helped a lot with the pain. I’ve been gargling salt water every hour or so & even got a humidifier because my throat was dry (assuming from my heater). I keep an empty cup to spit in because swallowing my own saliva is hell. I bought colloidal silver and I’m hoping it does something. I have a Dr appt today and I’m hoping to get some antibiotics 🥲 in the meantime I’m trying to stay hydrated and have drank a liquid IV. I’ve been eating pho broth for the last 2 days as well. I don’t wish this pain on anyone!
The pain isn’t that bad it’s just annoying and gets aggravating or on your nerves like when your tooth is just about to fall out the pain isn’t that bad but it’s still kind of annoying
I have been experiencing this and its so hard to swallow.. now i just drink water but it stills hurts
