What Could Be The Brown Spot On Tonsils With Difficulty In Swallowing And Breathing?

Hi, Ive always had problems with my tonsils. I have a growth on one of them that s been there since I was younger I should have had my tonsils taken out awhile ago but money became an issue. Anyways. I have developed a sore throat, and I have white spots on my tonsils which I know is strep but this time I have brownish what seems to be holes on my tonsils this time. I have difficulty swallowing and breathing. I had a fever the other day but it doesn t seem to have come back but the sore throat stayed. What could it be?

Hello read thru ur query accordingly i must say that these are symptoms of inflammed tonsils.You can take antibiotics(amoxicillin)as prescribed by ur doctor.Follow few home remedies like gargle with warm salt water daily 2-3 times for 2 weeks.Do tongue scraping after brushing daily(tongue scraping removes a whole lot of microbes on the back of tongue causing tonsilitis).Avoid cold foodstuffs for few weeks and have more of hot foodstuffs.Follow these and see the difference.Be cool and stay happy.Cool and happy mind is best medicine for any disease.Hope ur benefitted something from this reply.Have a healthy day!!!
