Question about my tonsils?

2 weeks ago I came down with something that left me really sick. I couldn't get out of bed for at least 4 or 5 days. My symptoms were severe tonsilitus which consisted of severe inflamation and pain and white spots on my tonsils. I had a high fever, aches all over, and some diaheara and vomiting. Went to an ear, mouth, and throat doctor. Took a strep test and it came back negative, was most likely a virus. The doctor prescribed me clindomycin (antibiotic) and prednisone (sterioid for inflamation). I completely better after 7 days. Its been a little over two weeks now and my left tonsil seems a little inflamed again. No pain really, but i feel it when i swallow. I'm afraid it's all going to come back. the white spots are gone, but the feeling of a rough tonsil is back...Any ideas of what i have? thanks a lot. PS.I stopped taking the antibiotic when i felt better(wasnt bacteria), started again yesterday,


Answers:

You Should Always Finish Your Antibiotic...Even If You Are Feeling Fine. Your Body Needs The Full Dose. You Should Begin The Feel Better In A Few Days. This Happened To Me In March. Your Immune System Should Be Stronger Now To Fight Off Whats Left. If Your Symptoms Worsen Call You Doctor. Good Luck!
