Home Remedy For Swollen Tonsil With White Spots?

Hi there! I have swollen tonsils with white spots on them. My lymph nodes have bumps in them, and I've noticed that on the right side, my tonsil is more swollen, my lymph node has a larger knot, and my ear feels plugged. When I gargle salt water, I feel better for a bit. I can't afford medical treatment at the moment. What should I do?

Dear i have gone through your query and your presenting complains indicates that you are suffering from ACUTE FOLLICULAR TONSILLITIS.....So at this stage u need proper antibiotic coverage as just by using home remedies we cannot reverse the acute condition as pus formation has also started .
Your earache is due to referred pain from the tonsil and the associated juglodigastric lymph node is swelled due to infection .
Please follow this -
Take plenty of fluids and rest
Paracetamol 500 mg twice daily after brkfast n dinner for 2 days .
Betadine Gargles with adding a tablet of aspirin in it for 4 - 5 times a day.
Tablet AZITHROMYCIN 500 mg once a day 1 hour before meal for 5 days
Dont take curd , rice , cold water , spicy food
Take easily digestable food n plenty of liquid diet.
Pls come back to me after following this or u thing anything to tell me.....best wishes ..Thanks for ur query.
