General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
It seems that you might be having acute follicular tonsillitis giving rise pain and pus pockets on tonsillar fossa.
As there is no improvement with pinamox, bacteria might be resistant to this antibiotic and you might require another antibiotic medicine like Azithromicin.
Do antiseptic or warm water gargles.
Ok and take care.
