How long does it take to recover from tonsilitis?

Question

I've had it for almost a week now.. I'm in alot of pain and discomfort. How long will it take until I recover?

Answer 1

Last time took me a couple of weeks to properly recover. Get a course of penicillin to help you.

Answer 2

you are looking at  2weeks ,at the most,

the  hospitals do not remove your tonsils anymore,

god know why!  stupid if you , ask me, so many people

suffer  from it ,      

Answer 3

if your on anti-biotics then should be soon, if not then i dont know

the doctors once thought i had tonsilitus but i had glandula fever and i was in bed for 2 months =[

Answer 4

does it look as tho you have cotton wool shoved in th eback of your throat? if you do you have tonsilitis, i had it with glandular fever and it took me a week just to get rid of tonsilitis.

if you want to get rid of it quickly- gargle with salt water, its horrible but it works.

Answer 5

it took me just over a week for the tonsilitis part to go, but another week on top of that to get my energy back..
