You need to add some medication.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

1. The treatment measures that you have taken till now are fine.

2. An OTC cold medication, a medicated oral rinse and steam inhalation should help.

3. If the tonsillitis, pain, fever persists or increases, you should get your throat examined by an ENT Specialist and get a prescription for an antibiotic. Your doctor can also get a blood count done.

4. Let me know the progress.

I hope that I have answered your query. If you have any further questions, I will be available to answer them.

Regards.
