General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms seem to be related to a peritonsillar abscess.
It is an area of pus-filled tissue at the back of the mouth, next to one of the tonsils.
The abscess can be very painful and make it difficult to open the mouth.
It can also cause swelling that can push the tonsil toward the uvula.
I suggest using antibiotics such as Augmentin twice a day for a week.
I also suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation.
I suggest to drink liquids and rest.


Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
