FAQ’s about Tonsillitis

Tonsillitis usually lasts about 7 to 10 days. Symptoms may improve within a few days with proper rest and treatment.

Mild cases of tonsillitis can heal naturally with rest and fluids. However, see a doctor if symptoms are severe or last longer.

Tonsillitis is generally not serious but can be uncomfortable. In rare cases, it can lead to complications like abscesses or chronic tonsillitis, which may require medical treatment.

Avoid irritants like smoking, spicy foods which can worsen tonsillitis. Also, avoid sharing personal items to prevent spreading the infection.

Gargle with warm salt water, stay hydrated, and use a humidifier. These methods can help reduce inflammation and discomfort in the tonsils.

Tonsillitis can spread through close contact, coughing, or sneezing. It’s important to maintain good hygiene and avoid contact with others when you’re sick.
