View allI've had swelling in my tonsils for two months now, and I've already taken medicine for a week after seeing a doctor. The swelling has gone down a little, but there's still more on one side. I noticed some white pus-like stuff there, too. There's no pain or fever, so I'm not sure what to think. Can you help me figure out what's going on? Should I be worried?
Based on your description and the photo you provided, it appears that you may be experiencing chronic tonsillitis with unilateral swelling and white pus. Since you have already taken medication for 7 days with some improvement, I would recommend continuing with a course of antibiotics to fully treat the infection. You can try taking a 10-day course of Amoxicillin (brand name: Amoxil) 500mg three times a day. This antibiotic is effective against bacterial infections commonly seen in tonsillitis. Additionally, you can use throat lozenges to soothe any discomfort and gargle with warm salt water to help reduce inflammation. If the swelling and pus persist or worsen despite the antibiotic treatment, it would be advisable to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. Thank you for providing the information and photo for better understanding of your condition.

My right nostril has been completely blocked for the past three months. The doctor diagnosed it as DNS and recommended surgery, but I've been trying homeopathy for a month with no relief. What else can I do to improve this?
If homeopathy hasn’t helped, an ENT might recommend septoplasty or radiofrequency ablation. Nasal sprays and steam inhalation may help temporarily.

My left nostril is completely blocked due to nasal polyps and I can only breathe through my mouth. Doctors are recommending surgery but I'm wondering if homeopathy has any treatment options that could help avoid surgery
While homeopathic remedies may offer a complementary approach for nasal polyps, it's crucial to understand that they are not a substitute for conventional medical treatment. If you are experiencing complete nasal blockage and difficulty breathing, seeking a medical consultation is vital.
