If the inflammation is serious, you'd better take some amoxicillin. The effect of these broad-spectrum antibiotics is usually good, the side effects are small, and they are controlled within a reasonable dose. For example, Baiyun Mountain is good. The tonsil inflammation was quite serious before, and my throat was so sore that I could hardly swallow anything. The doctor prescribed it for me and it recovered well.
If you don't want to take medicine, you can choose Flos Lonicerae 15g, Radix Platycodi 20g, Radix Glycyrrhizae 10g, Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae 10g and Fructus Canarii Albi 15g. Boil with 1000g of water, then cook with warm fire for 45 minutes, and add honey to the filtered soup for three times.
