Chronic tonsillitis

Can I put aloe vera drops in my nose? It helps me.

Preventive measures helped me over several years, with a course of rinsing with furacilin and applying Lugol's solution in spring and autumn, it seems. It was a long time ago, about 10 years back.

Of course, back.

I use blue iodine. You can criticise, but it's the only thing, besides antibiotics, that really and quickly tackles my chronic tonsillitis.

Blue and one

Try to strengthen your immune system by eating onions, honey, and drinking chamomile and St. John's wort tea. I remember gargling with a dreadful kerosene solution—it was absolutely foul. I also chewed mumijo; it drew all the pus out. Good health to you.

The only thing that helped me get rid of this nastiness was having my tonsils removed. Now, no problems—touch wood! :-)) Author, be careful—tonsillitis really badly affects the heart and joints!

Apply Lugol's solution. Just be careful, as you can get a burn (like I once managed to do). Although, it seems you're already quite attentive to yourself. Take some general strengthening supplements, keep your feet warm... I don't know myself, I suffer every spring.

I gargled with Furacilin several times a day, using 2 tablets per half litre of water.

I recommend you visit a resort with mud therapy and mineral water. In childhood, our parents used to send us to a sanatorium regularly. There were no problems. But now (it's been over 10 years already), my throat has started to hurt again :( And St. John's wort is really good!!

7 - blimey!!! And I was wondering what's up with my joints, and more and more abnormalities are being found in my heart's work. So it's all because of tonsillitis... Doctors have been diagnosing it my whole life, they were even scared of the state of my throat, but not a single doctor has ever made any recommendations for treatment (the question of its necessity wasn't even raised). It's only now that I've grown up that I've started thinking about my health myself. I've been considering going to a private doctor, or better yet, just having them removed. But that's probably very expensive, I can't afford it (((

Don't mind the typos, I see them...

They removed mine for free, but that was many years ago.

It somehow cleared up on its own for me, and now I get tonsillitis (touch wood) less and less frequently. The last time I was hospitalized was four years ago, after which I decided enough was enough. I started taking echinacea, at the slightest sore throat I immediately used Bioparox (it really helped me), gargled with chamomile, and began regularly going to the seaside. I think the sea helped me the most.

There's this thing called "Vitafon"... believe it or not... I used it for a week and haven't had any trouble for about half a year now.

CUT ONLY! TONSILLITIS WILL COME BACK AND KILL YOU BIT BY BIT. GO TO THE THREAD "TONSILLECTOMY. RESPOND WHO HAS UNDERGONE IT".

Ah, and after the tonsils are removed, you'll get rid of tonsillitis, but then you'll suffer from bronchitis instead, as without the ability to be caught in the throat, any infection will head straight for the bronchi...

17 rights - that's right. Say goodbye to tonsillitis, hello to bronchitis))

Zheka, that's all fairy tales. I had my tonsils removed three and a half years ago. Since then, I haven't had bronchitis or tracheitis even once. The latter, by the way, I used to suffer from regularly during my teenage years. My husband also had his tonsils removed (back in his childhood) as did his father. And they're both absolutely fine.

Author, have you used any lozenges, such as Sebidin, Hexoral, or Faringosept?

19 - my mother had her tonsils removed when she was young, and she's really unhappy about it. She says her throat has been scratchy and dry ever since, especially when she's ill. She gets sick just as often as I do - with throat issues that even doctors find alarming.

Perhaps they can be partially removed somehow; I've heard about that somewhere.

19, what the hell kind of fairy tales are these? Let's just say you personally got really lucky—though life will still show its true colors, but I hope everything turns out well with your health. Personally, having my tonsils removed didn't help me. I had them taken out when I was 13—bronchitis is what every viral respiratory infection ends up as for me. You wouldn't wish it on your worst enemy.

I've been suffering from this for about 3 to 4 years, after having tonsillitis. I'm very afraid of surgery, but I'm now ready to have those wretched tonsils removed. At home, I have a whole stockpile of pills and throat sprays, but I can't seem to get cured—I just keep spending money on new sprays. I've seen an ENT specialist. He diagnosed me with chronic tonsillitis. He recommended taking Imudon, but it's not available in stores. And he doesn't advise surgery, saying it might trigger bronchial asthma!

My ENT specialist recommended the following treatment for tonsillitis: add crushed Trichopol (metronidazole, 1 tablet) to warm Furacilin (the jar is placed in a tray of warm water), along with a bit of honey, some iodine solution, and calendula. Everything is mixed together, and this solution is used to wash the tonsils with a syringe and cannula, 10 times, preferably daily or every other day. After the procedure, the tonsils are coated with Lugol's solution. On the day of the procedure, in the evening, the tonsils should be rinsed with a saltwater solution—a glass of water with as much salt as you can tolerate—and then coated with Lugol's again. If the procedure is done every other day, on the free day, rinse morning and evening. There are 10 such procedures in total. Then a break of 3 months, another 10 procedures, a break of 6 months, and a final 10 procedures. So far, I've done 6 procedures and have already eaten ice cream twice!!! And my throat doesn't hurt after it!!! I haven't had ice cream for six months! =) We'll see what happens next; maybe it really will help... Has anyone else treated their tonsils this way?

Natalia, you need to have a throat swab tested for trichomonads and staphylococcus; often tonsillitis is caused by trichomonads, which need to be treated. How long have you had tonsillitis, and are you experiencing hair loss?

"Hello... I also had tonsillitis... They took swabs from my throat and nose - they found staphylococcus in the throat (something to the power of 10 to the 6) the doctor said that's a lot and needs treatment... I was admitted to hospital, given *Hepacef* injections for 7 days + tonsil irrigations, gargling, and chlorophyllipt nose drops. Are we doing the right thing? Now I'm waiting for the treatment results, just got discharged today... but the temperature is still holding at 37.0."

The tonsils are connected to the kidney via arteries. It is possible that the infection is consistently coming from there. Try submitting a urine sample for a bacterial culture. It may be that if the kidneys are infected and you treat them, the tonsillitis will resolve on its own.

What you are squeezing out of the tonsils is not pus, but bacterial waste products.

I have hair loss and chronic tonsillitis...
How are these related??? And how is it treated?

I had tonsillitis in the summer. The consequence is chronic tonsillitis. There's streptococcus in my blood. The cardiologist hasn't found anything bad, but my heart often aches, though mildly. Could it be hurting because of the streptococcus? The pain comes out of nowhere, not due to overexertion or anything. I'm just wondering if I should ignore it or if it could lead to complications? And what could be the cause of the pain?

If anyone knows, please write to the email

I have been suffering from chronic tonsillitis for 15 years now, with a daily temperature of 37.5°C that never drops any lower. I constantly experience headaches, joint pain, and heart pain!!!! I've tried every possible treatment, but nothing helps(((((

Guys, I suffered from this nasty thing for about half a year myself, scoured the entire internet on how to cure it and found it! Buy birch tar—it's sold in pharmacies in a regular small brown bottle, costs around 50 rubles, maybe cheaper, but definitely not more than 100 rubles. At night, apply it to your tonsils with a cotton swab. The smell is quite strong, of course, but what can you do. By morning, it hardly smells at all. I applied it for 3-4 consecutive nights, and those disgusting lumps haven't come back! Now, I apply it about twice a month for prevention, since tar is a natural antiseptic.

Is hair loss related to chronic tonsillitis? And how can the problem be resolved? The throat swab showed nothing. Thank you.

I also have chronic tonsillitis, though without any pus. The doctor recommends a course of antibiotic injections directly into the tonsils. They say it's the only option besides surgery. But I'm absolutely terrified of that!

Hello! I've found regular tonsil irrigation with saline solution at the doctor's to be very helpful (though the doctor must be very thorough; many perform this seemingly simple procedure without due care). I doubt antibiotics can help much, as with tonsillitis, it's crucial to physically remove pus, etc., from the tonsils. Squeezing out the pus isn't the best solution either, as you'll end up injuring already inflamed tissue.

Also, try to avoid eating sweets altogether, as they significantly weaken the immune system. If you have any questions, feel free to write, and I'll answer.

Most importantly, don't lose hope!

It turns out I've had tonsillitis since childhood; as long as I can remember, I've always been coughing and coughing up pus (it's awful).

I've been checked in every possible way; the last diagnosis was obstructive bronchitis, but no one ever diagnosed tonsillitis because I have almost no tonsils—they're nearly atrophied.

Tonsillitis was diagnosed this summer when my throat really started to hurt.

What I'm dealing with today:

1. Started going bald at 18, now at 28 completely bald.

2. Joint pains.

3. Constant temperature of 37°C.

4. High blood pressure.

5. Duodenal ulcer.

6. I look like I'm 35 years old.

I don't smoke or drink.

I went for ENT treatment for almost half a year with no results.

I gargle with Furacilin, Chlorophyllipt, dissolve Gramicidin C, apply Lugol's solution, and gargle with salt. Relief lasts only two days.

I'm mentally prepared to have my tonsils removed, but due to work specifics, I simply have no time.

My sister had hers removed as a child, and she's happy now; she's 30 and has no bronchitis issues.

Ah, if only I'd known what was wrong with me earlier, I would have had them removed long ago and spared myself the suffering.

Aren't you afraid that when you do have time, it'll be too late? Why put it off? I have the same problem myself.

Good afternoon everyone, I've just had my tonsils removed. I recommend it to anyone with chronic tonsillitis.

And I have chronic tonsillitis; my throat just started hurting, and suddenly it turns out to be chronic. No matter how much I tried self-treatment, it was all pointless. I applied Lugol's solution and gargled, chewed various tablets—basically everything that's recommended on self-help websites. Then I went to a free doctor who told me to just spray with Ingalipt and it would go away. After a week of spraying, I was shocked. My tonsils became more inflamed, the pus plugs increased, and the plugs themselves, let's say, grew larger. Horrified, I rushed to a private clinic where they referred me for Tonsilor treatment and laser therapy. Besides that, they prescribed Imudon. I've had 3 out of 7 procedures so far. Improvement is already visible: the plugs have cleared out, and my tonsils have noticeably shrunk. Additionally, I drink chamomile tea with a spoonful of honey, chew beeswax, and always take vitamins!!! Good luck in treating this nasty thing))

Hello! My throat started hurting about a month ago, and I treated it with usual methods (gargling). After five days, it happened again, even worse, with a temperature of 37.4°C and swollen lymph nodes. I took antibiotics, was fine for a week, and then the same story repeated!!!! The temperature has been lingering for over a week now at 37.4°C, and it's not there after sleep but rises within an hour. After examining me, the ENT specialist diagnosed chronic tonsillitis. There are no plugs, but the throat isn't critical, though she mentioned there's pus behind the tonsils! They prescribed antibiotics again, and in a strong form: Klacid 500 twice a day for 14 days!! I just physically can't take these antibiotics anymore; I'm constantly on them!! And after them, I suffer from all sorts of dysbiosis, hair loss in unreal amounts, etc. Tell me, is there another way, maybe a local antibiotic injection or application?! I simply can't spend my whole life on these antibiotics as if they were vitamins!!;((( Help!!

Chronic tonsillitis is awful............. I'm suffering a lot. MY HAIR IS FALLING OUT IN CLUMPS. I'M GOING BALD!!!! WHAT SHOULD I DO???????????

Help, anyone who knows anything: (nothing is helping)

And I have tonsillitis and my hair has been falling out for two years; I'm suffering and don't know the cause, but it's clearly the throat.

Guys, has anyone been prescribed UHF heating for tonsils with chronic tonsillitis???????????

It all started with swollen lymph nodes, a sore throat, and a fever of 37.4°C. I gargled with baking soda, salt, and iodine for a week. The sore throat went away, but the fever and swollen lymph nodes remained. I've been dealing with this for five months now. I visited an ENT specialist, took multiple courses of medication, and had my tonsils flushed, but nothing has helped—the fever persists as before. The diagnosis is chronic tonsillitis, but the odd thing is that many people mention having some kind of plugs, whereas I don't have any white plugs. I asked my doctor, and he said I have liquid pus inside my tonsils, which is why they're not visible. In short, his verdict is to remove my tonsils. If this has helped anyone, please share your experience. If anyone is interested in discussing this topic, sharing their treatment experiences, or offering advice, I'd be very happy to hear from you! Write to me or call me on Skype: saifer40.

I also have a chronic tonsillitis problem for three years now. I've treated it with Lugol's solution and had my tonsil lacunae washed out at the hospital, but nothing helps. I also have kidney issues and constant sore throats—just half a glass of cool water can trigger one immediately! I don't know what to do anymore.

Remove them! If my doctor had told me earlier about the complications, I would have had them removed long ago and might not be suffering so much now!

I can share my story, which is both sad and joyful on different fronts. Sad because the battle against chronic tonsillitis consumed a lot of energy, time, and resources. Joyful because I have recovered.

First, you need to find a good ENT specialist who can help; they are rare, but trust me (I went through about 10 candidates and doctors), I know one in Moscow if anyone is interested. Secondly, no rinsing with Lugol's solution or smearing will help you; the source of infection is inside the tonsils. Imagine an open plastic bottle with dirty water—even if you smear it with Lugol's or whatever else, will the water become clean? That's for understanding. So what should you do? The first and most important thing is to clean out the tonsils. The ideal option: a tonsillor device + syringe irrigation. Recommendations for everyone: 1) In the morning and evening after meals, chew a small piece of ginger (I know it's unpleasant, but what can you do?!)—the tough part after you've extracted the juice, don't swallow it, but spit it out.
