Can I get rid of tonsilitis on my own and how ?

1 Answer

Answer :

Sometimes having a wisdom tooth coming through can make you get sick with other things (like the tonsillitis)...2 days is probably OK for tonsillitis so don’t worry too much if you can get into the docs tomorrow. You wont be able to make it go away on its own – it will either need to run its course or you get some help from the doctor but there’s some things you can do to ease it. Try sucking ice-cubes or eating gelato which will soothe your throat (milk based ice cream won’t help – it needs to be fruit/water based). I have gargled with salt water before which is pretty gross (don’t swallow), but it helps for a while. You can get anaesthetic strepsils from the pharmacy too. Get well soon!
