Suggest Remedies For Irritated And Painful Tonsils
Hi I was eating chips and my throat started to feel weird so I looked and a piece of my tonsil is hanging off, like it ripped. I went to the emergency room and they said it would heal on its own but I m having a hard time believing that. I can feel it everytime I swallow and it s very irratating . What should I do?

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to tonsillitis which is an inflammation of the tonsils.
I suggest using anti inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day.
I also suggest using a throat spray for antibacterial properties.
I recommend to drink liquids.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
