Brief Answer:
Granular pharyngitis not from amoxicillin

Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,

I have gone through your query; it suggests that you may be suffering from the granular pharyngitis and it could not be from the amoxicillin.

Personally I advised to you that with amoxicillin you also take
1. Nasal decongestant and systemic decongestant.
2. Vitamin C 500mg three times a day.
3. Steam inhalation three times a day at least for five minutes.

Avoid ear bud, oil and water in the ear.

Thanks
