Prescribed Low Dose Of Laoratab For Swollen Tonsillitis And Having Ear Pain
Tonsillitis is very painful right now. I went to my university's health clinic yesterday and tested negative for Strep. All he perscribed me was a low dosage of Loratab. I woke up this morning feeling much worse than yesterday. My tonsils are more swollen and I have a slight pain in my ear now. I was wondering if I need to go back to the doctor immediately or ride out the storm for the next couple of days. Thanks
