Help me i have Tonsillitis. Do i have to get my Tonsils Removed or if i have medication will it go away.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
Your tonsillitis will clear up in a few days. It is not necessary to have them removed after just one infection, but if you keep getting the virus, then yes, it may be worth you getting them removed.
Drink plenty of water, and get lots of rest. Eat soft foods and avoid hot drinks.Health Question & Answer

It depends on the severity. If your tonsilitis is bad, you need them removed or they might swell up and suffocate you. If you have a low pain tolerance, and it's not really that bad, then antibiotics should help. You'll probably need 'em out. Are you sure you have tonsilitis.? If you think you have to get them out because it's that bad, make sure it actually is tonsilitis first.Health Question & Answer
Are you self diagnosing this or did the Dr tell you this, he gave you no meds.? Throat coat tea helps it be a bit more barable, at any health food store and you can sip on it all day long.
The Dr will assess how many times you had it in your life or this year and make the appropriate call on this. If this is your first time, they will not remove your tonsils, that is done for people who get it all the time and have all their lives pretty much.Health Question & Answer

Typically the MD will give you an antibiotic and the infection will clear up. If it's chronic and ongoing than depending on how old you they may/might opt to remove your tonsils though typically they try not to now. In the mean time I suggest Ice Cream and Hot Soup. They're both soothing to the throat. Cough drops Leudens, Halls, etc are also helpful.Health Question & Answer
i used to get this every year. the doctor will give you emoxicillan or penicillan to get rid of the infection. i would spray my throat with that vicks soarthroat spray it kinda numbs it for a little bit. I still have my tonsils and i am 33. when you get them taken out the give you all kinds of ice cream to eat so maybe try eating somethng cold and gargle with warm salt water to knock out the infection if you dont have medsHealth Question & Answer
try some licorice....yes the black licorice....it contains anaise which will help with the swelling and pain for now....warm tea......and prolonging having your tonsils removed will only invite future intense infections......and besides...the mega doses of antibiotics are not beneficial in the long run on your health.....licorice.....and warm tea........doctor.......Health Question & Answer
pain so bad you can not even swallow your own spit.....see a doctor....Health Question & Answer
It depends on if you have had it many ,any many times. I suggest you get them taken out so you wont ever get it again. It really feels a lot better after the surgery and you can eat ice cream all day. if its the first time talk to your doctor for what he/she recomends.Health Question & Answer
Docs don't remove tonsils at the drop of a hat anymore, so you should be okay.
I hope you've seen a doctor to get this diagnosis. Just do whatever your doctor told you to do. If you're not under the care of a physician, it could get worse.Health Question & Answer
