Sore throat with tonsil inflammation
Hello Doctor,
I have a mild sore throat for last one month. No problem in eating solid food, just a mild pain in a particular point below left tonsil while swallowing saliva or sometimes yawning or talking. Have taken azithral, augmentin, Allegra, clarithromycin but not much change. Have mild fever(97.7) sometimes. Have less appetite and sometimes feel like food is stuck and have to clear my throat. Also feel burning or itching sensation sometimes in that area. Please refer the attached pic of left tonsil. Doctors said due to acid reflux but I am worried a lot with the fear of something serious. Please provide your opinions. Thanks.
