Suggest Treatment For Pain From Swollen Gland In The Throat
I have a swollen tonsil or gland only on the right side. Feels like sharp pain and making it hard to talk. Have been to the Dr and tested negative for Strep. I have had this pain without change for 6 days. They say I do not need an antibiotic. I do not have a fever or otherwise feel sick. It is so painful. What can I do??????
