There is Follicular Tonsillitis
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day
Dear Mr XXXXXXX
Thanks for providing clinical photograph. Going by description of symptoms and clinical photograph you have got severe follicular Tonsillitis. There is still persistent infection possible with Staphylococci which are resistant to antibiotics used.
I would suggest the following which will definitely be helpful
1. Warm Saline Gargling: To a glass of lukewarm water add 2 spoons of common table salt. Gargle the throat with it thrice a day
2. Povidone Iodine Mouth Gargle: Gargling the throat with Povidone Iodine (Betadaine Mouth Gargle solution) thrice a day will be helpful. Alternate it with above mouthwash
3. Change of antibiotic: Using Augmentin antibiotic for another 5 days will be helpful
4. Avoid cold and frozen food
4. Decoction: To a cup of milk add 1 spoon of turmeric + 10 leaves of holy basel(provided its available) + 1 spoon sugar+ 3 black pepper. Bring the mixture to boil. Filter it and drink it warm twice a day
5. To a spoon of honey add 2 drops of fresh lemon juice and sip it 4-5 times a day
Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Take Care
Best regards
Dr Shobha Deepak
