Frequent tonsils swelling fever
Hi
My husband is getting very frequent tonsillitis in cold.
5 minutes exposure to cold weather makes tonsils swell and he gets fever.
This is consistent in this winter season.
We referred General physicians and taking medicines but this is temporary solution as it leeps coming.
He seems to get constipation and mouth ulcers too dye to antibiotics.
Is it something serious?
What tests should be undertaken?
Which specialist to be consulted for this?
Try to keep patient warm. Wear a warm cap. Take warm fluids. Avoid spicy and sour foods. Avoid going out in cold and if you hv to, cover your face to avoid cold breath. Take tab. Levoday (500mg) at bed time for 5 days. Betadine gagles thrice daily for a week. If symptoms recurr, consult an ENT specialist.
Next Steps
Revert back after one week
