The culture report will mention which antibiotic you are sensetive to.. you will have to start that antibiotic. You will have to show to a nearby ENT doctor to see how much is the inflammation. If inflammation is a lot or you are sensetive only to higher antibiotics then you will need iv administration.
Next Steps
avoid cold water, cold food
Health Tips
Have warm water with a pinch of salt and one spoon of turmeric 2-3 times a day have betadine gargles thrice a day
