Hi,

You deem to have inflammation in tonsil. Need to take anti-inflammatory pills along with that. In bronchitis patients we do add bronchi-dilators and even steroids in severe cases (to be decided by physician after physical examination and needful investigations) any ways. You can add tab. Ibugesic and tab. Derriphyllin along with antibiotic and cough syrup. Drink warm water. Take vapor inhalation. You should consult a chest physician for exact advice.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
