How bad is it to exercise with tonsillitis?I have tonsillitis and am being treated for it but, I am on the high school crosscountry team, and i run over 5 miles a day. Can i keep running or do i need to stop until my medicine is gone? Could i run only like a mile a day? i really don't want to get out of shape.

thanks.
Its bacterial so i have a fever and headache

Hey man, your body is fighting to become well again. I wouldn't put any unnecessary strain on it until you are over the tonsil thing. Talk to your doctor.

Just take it slow until your body recuperates more fully. Try it out and see how your body responds. If you find that you don't have any problem with it, continue doing so as long as your doctor doesn't object.
You're not post-op and you don't have a "respiratory" condition, so I honestly don't see that you should have any difficulty resuming your exercise routine. Continue your medication as your doctor prescribed it and drink lots of clear fluids.
I hope you feel better soon, God bless!
