Acute suppurative tonsillitis heals in a few days

In general, acute purulent tonsillitis can be fully recovered in about 7-10 days if the infection is actively controlled with symptomatic medications. Acute suppurative tonsillitis occurs mainly due to a combination of bacterial and anaerobic bacteria, and the patient has a relatively acute onset and severe infection, accompanied by varying degrees of hyperthermia. On examination, the tonsils are congested and enlarged bilaterally, and purulent secretions are present on the surface. In terms of treatment, this disease is mainly treated with symptomatic antibiotics, together with the use of metronidazole combined with infusion therapy, and then you can use anti-inflammatory mouthwash rinse, such as the clinically used Dobell’s solution, to maintain oral hygiene. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees, you can use antipyretic drugs as appropriate. If the tonsils are frequently and repeatedly inflamed, more than 4-5 times a year, tonsillectomy can also be considered.
