Tonsils problem needs to be treated
Hello.
I am suffering from tonsils problem from last 14 YEARS. I could not eat anything sour like lemon ,tamarind containing food, oranges,grapes, Yoghurt. Or anything too sweet like rasmalai, gulab jamun , pastries, chocolate. Every time I eat I suffer from very bad cough all throughout the day and night.
I am very tensed and think this is getting chronic. I have been treated by several different doctors who give antibiotics like zipod 200 which subsides the throat pain and cough. But I need long term solution. Please advice.
I am Not having any other health problems.

The only treatment for chronic tonsillitis is tonsillectomy.
If associated with reflux it can increase the severity.
Take treatment for acid reflux if you have it and avoid spicy and citrus food.
