Enlargement of tonsils denotes infection in sorouding areas of neck. Once the infection subsides size of tonsils is reduced.
Next Steps
If your sinus problem is mild take tablet Augmentin-625 twice daily and tablet Hifinac-P twice daily for 1 week. Do hot water vapour inhalation with Amruthanjan or Vicks vaporub twice daily. If the problem is too severe consult ENT surgeon.
