Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
The pus pocket over the tonsil, is called follicular tonsillitis a bacterial infection over the tonsils. Due to this infection, the regional lymph nodes, swells, and may be pain full.
I advise you to consult an E.N.T surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms erythromycin 500mg, phenylephrine hydrochloride, citrizine, and paracetamol.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods to hasten the recovery.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
