What Medication Is Suggested For Peritonsillar Abscess?

Hello. I'm a 20 year old male who recently (about a month ago) suffered from a Peritonsillar Abscess. About four days ago, I woke up with severe pain in my upper left flank. For the last 48 hours or so, my right testicle also appears quite swollen, tender to the touch and it pulses occasionally which causes pain, I can feel the "bag of worms" I've read about online, and it is hanging much lower than the left one. As well, I have been unable to sleep for three days and am suffering from tingling all over my extremities, minor spasms, exceedingly dry throat and bleeding gums (my teeth feel loose too), dark, cloudy odorous urine, the need to urinate frequently, a slight fever, a constant headache, and my mental state is rapidly deteriorating (i.e. becoming increasingly forgetful, irritable, etc.). I take creatine, adderall, drink alcohol occasionally, and hardly smoke. I'm in good shape too.

Hello,

As you already diagnosed as peritonsillar abscess, you can take tablet Amoxicillin-Clavulanic Acid, tablet Dolo, and tablet Okacet Cold after consultation.

Stop smoking and alcohol, do warm water or betadine gargles 3 to 4 times per day, keep yourself hydrated and take rest.

I will suggest you review here with detailed history or consult with ENT surgeon.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale
