White secretions from tonsils
I have some white liquid like secretion from tonsils sometimes. It's very sticky. Its been almost 3 months. I have visited many ent doctors. But one doctor asked for throat culture and sensitivity test. The reported said there is kesibiella oxcytoca bacteria. What is the treatment. I am yet to show report to doctor. Also how do I prevent this infection from occuring. The infection has left a huge hole in tonsils
Klebsiela oxytoca is normally found in our mouth, nose and intestines. This bacteria normally doesn’t cause infection in healthy individuals, only in the immunocompromised individual it can cause serious infection. If u have symptoms then only we can say u are infected, u need to have a detailed consultation on video or show the doctor u are already consulting.
