Treatment

The doctor will first diagnose the severity using a physical examination of the throat. If necessary, a throat culture may be taken by swabbing the back of your throat.

After diagnosis, the patient’s complete medical history is studied to understand the nature of homeopathic remedies that needs to be administered to him. Homeopathy cures tonsillitis from its roots without the need for surgical intervention. The mode of treatment follows a two-step procedure for tonsillitis. First, medicines are given to treat the symptoms of tonsillitis. In the second step, medicines are administered to target the chronic tendency towards recurrent tonsillitis.
