I've had a swollen tonsil for nearly one week now, and it frequently comes and goes on its own, but this time it's just not getting better. i've had no viral symptoms or fever at all. It doesn't hurt to swallow or talk. The only thing i've noticed is that the one side of my throat often feels really dry, scratchy when i breathe in, and swallow Salvia. I have given Cefolac XL 200, four times MONTAIR LC two times in two days at night, and took other antibiotics, but they haven't made any difference. I've also been gargling with salt water. The doctor still won't see me to have a look at it and i'm at a loose end. What could this be and what should i do?
