Question: I've had a minor sore throat since Monday, and this weekend it's gotten worse and my mom said my....?
That my toncils are some-what swollen. What is this? Just a sore throat? How do I make it go away? Its lasting a while.

Answers:

See a doctor to find out if it`s tonsillitis, or allergies.



Quite literally impossible to diagnose without examination and cultures.

However, while it could be tonsilitis, it is very unlikely. More than likely it is a viral infection that has the usual bacterial component. Some sinus drainage is likely contributing to the sore throat.

Best advice is to see your doctor to get the standard of care you need to feel better and hopefully shorten the duration of this sickness.

Go in and see him in the morning and if you have a temperature you should stay out of school, otherwise take the course of medication given and you should feel better within several days.
