How To Treat Inflamed And Swollen Tonsils Along With Blood Streaked Phlegm?
I m 23 and have my tonsils still. For the past 3 days, I ve dealt with swollen tonsils and sharp pain in that area when yawning or opening my mouth wide. It hurts to swallow and my tonsils are visually inflamed. I had a really sore neck this morning and I can t tell if my lymph nodes are swollen or not. I just coughed up firm phlegm that was yellow and streaked with blood. What should I do? Do you recommend going to the clinic to get antibiotics?
