Suggest Treatment For Tonsillitis
Hi doctor, I ve been suffering with tonsillitis for about a week now and went to my local GP two days ago, who confirmed it was a bacterial infection and gave me anti-biotics. Since then a tiny lump/bump has appeared above my uvula, at the root of my mouth. Any help?!

Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic
I went through the history and it seems you are having tonsillitis and since it is not responding to treatment with antibiotics, the antibiotic needs to be changed depending on the culture and sensitivity of the throat swan. Along with this use of anti-inflammatory drugs will provide symptomatic relief.
Do consult your doctor for examination and prescription of drugs.
Do write back to me for further questions.
Hope this is helpful yo you.
Thank you
