Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If it is the condition of GERD then it may not be due to the tonsillitis, condition of GERD can be successfully treated with Tab Omeprazole and Domperidone. Try to avoid the heavy meal, smoking, alcohol prior to bed, and avoid mental stress.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Akhtarhusain Shaikh
