Home Remedy for Tonsillitis
Tonsils are lymph nodes, located on both sides of the
throat. Tonsillitis can be described as a bacterial or viral infection
that affects these lymph nodes. This infection results in enlargement of
the tonsils. Tonsillitis can be of varying degrees of seriousness -
mild, moderate and severe. In case of chronic tonsillitis, enlargement
of the tonsils is often accompanied with repeated attacks of infection.
A contagious disease by nature, tonsillitis can spread very quickly from
one person to another. Some of the most common symptoms of tonsillitis
are sore throat, fever, pain in the tonsils (especially when
swallowing), runny nose, nasal congestion, coughing and sneezing. The
ailment can, however, be treated at home, using natural remedies. In the
