How Can Throat Pain Be Treated?

I burnt my throats while smoking weed once. My throat didn t start hurting until about a week later. But then it didn t stop. It s been a month now and I ve seen a couple a doctors and they said I need my tonsils removed. I m not sure if maybe it s just due to the burn and maybe I need more time for it to heal.

Hi,

I read that you have consulted with doctors and they have told you to remove your tonsils. Before it i believe you must have a laboratory test of your tonsils in microbiologic laboratory to see what really is problem with them. If this test result with high risk infections in it you must removed it as soon as possible to prevent another complications.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
