Swelling in tonsil
I have swelling in my right tonsil for 2 months. My doctor gave me Augpen 650 and later ceftum 500 accompanied with betadine gargle, but it had no effect on my tonsil swelling. In fact, my left tonsil started to develop a little swelling. I visited an ENT doctor but he said it is normal to have tonsils swelled and i don't need any medication or diagnosis. Should i consult another doctor?

You need a proper ENT examination, and imaging tests, before stating that the tissue is normal.
