Chronic and recurrent tonsillitis may occur due to biofilms in the folds of the tonsils. Biofilms are communities of microorganisms that have developed antibiotic resistance, and they can cause repeated infections. Penicillin taken by mouth for 10 days is the most common antibiotic treatment prescribed for tonsillitis caused by group A streptococcus. Antibiotic with proper dose and duration is important. Maintenance of oral hygiene. Povidine iodine gurgle. Tonsillectomy if it's irritating a lot.
