What can I do about tonsillitis early?

What can I do about tonsillitis early?A close friend of mine recently had a severe bout of tonsillitis that lasted nearly a week. I might just be paranoid, but I'm starting to detect a slightly sore throat and upon feeling the lymph nodes in my neck, slight soreness. If this is indeed the infection beginning to take hold, is there anything I can do now to curb it before it gets bad? If I even have it?

I would go see a doctor because if it is tonsillitis you will need antibiotics, I wouldn't wait because it could be more serious than just a sore throat you could even have strep.

I hate doing this myself but to be sure it isn't just a sore throat I would try gargling warm salt water.

Gargle Warm salt water and get good sleep.

Make sure you get lots of sleep and vitamin c. If your tonsils get really bad and you can see white spots on them then you should definitely go to the doctor as although they are now rarely removed they can probably give you antibiotics for it.

Hope you feel better soon.

You can only treat tonsillitis with antibiotics, but the only way to prevent tonsillitis is to have the tonsils removed.

My son suffered acute tonsillitis since Dec. 2007. He suffered with high fever every month & even twice a month. Searching for an answer with prayers is the best we can do as parents. Drinking antibiotics every month makes me worry and most especially when my 5yr old son screaming for the paint for having a high fever and his eyes is burning. It will definitely breaks your heart. Until God answered my prayer. The disease came back this 02.13.09. Our Charismatic leader endorsed me this BARLEY ESSENTIAL a food supplement. I increased the dosage since his first medication as 1/2 sachet for 3xday last 02.02.09. I let my son drink the Barley 1 sachet for 3xday starting the night he suffered the disease. On 02.14.09, morning came the exudative white patches starting to disappear. Prayer, Faith and Medication is the answer. Praise Be The Lord JESUS Christ.
