I was wondering if anyone here has experienced this problem. I find that my throat is constantly getting inflamed, but only the left tuncil is usually giving me problems. At times it is sore and a bit swollen too and doctors usually give me antibiotics for that, but as soon as I take one course, it usually comes back again a few days later. Sometimes, hot drinks and tablets help, but only for a day or 2 and then it all comes back again. I am now on the waiting list to see a throat specialist, but while I wait, I thought to post this message here, hoping that someone would help me with it. Thanks.

Hi there

At risk of being the bearer of bad news, it sounds like you need a tonsilectomy. I went through the same thing as a child, so they whipped them out.
