How long do I need to take homeopathy medicines for a vocal polyp? I was diagnosed with a polyp and the ENT recommended surgery but I'm exploring homeopathy treatment options first. Can you advise on how effective it is and the usual duration for treatment?

I'm dealing with my tonsils swelling up every now and then, and it's really causing some pain in my throat. Could you help me figure out why this keeps happening and what might be causing the tonsils to swell like this?

Treatment includes warm salt gargles, pain relievers, and possibly antibiotics if bacterial infection is suspected. If the pain persists, is severe, or is accompanied by fever, its best to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment.
