Get to your gp soon as. You have tonsillitus and whether it is viral or bacterial, take some ibroprofen. It works way better than paracetomal when it comes to relieving pain. gargle with 2 asprin tablets dissolved in water this reduces the swelling of the tonsills do this every few hours. I guarenttee gargling asprin will help reduce the redness/swelling :). Eat cold jellys, ice in your water. Keep hydrated and cool. Hope you get better soon :)
Number one take some paracetamol.(4 hourly).
Number two, gargle with a warm slightly salty solution, at least three to four times during the day. ( and keep your mouth mega clean).
Number three, drink plenty of fluids,
Number four , if you can try to get some proper rest.
and use throat lozenges in between times... Hope you're soon feeling better!
Try gargling with mouth wash or warm salt water. You have a BAD infection and need meds. Take care of that ASAP. Good luck!
Definitely take some painkillers but if your tonsil is huge and has puss on it there is a chance that is serious so you could call up the emergency doctor which is always open because this could be serious. If not, take some painkillers which will help the ear ache and wait until tomorrow - i don't know if this will help but try eating stuff like ice cream to soothe the pain of your tonsil.
Drink bottled water.
