Hi,
It seems to inflammation swelling can be cellulitis ! Antibiotic treatment is to be taken 500/125 Amoxclav for 5 days taken at least plus symptomatic treatment, take ENT opinion also. Recurrence is due to low immune capability, do learn some pranayama and strengthen your immune system also.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
