Tonsillitis is the inflammation of the palatine tonsils, usually caused by viral or bacterial infection. It can be acute or chronic. Acute tonsillitis presents with sore throat, difficulty swallowing, fever, redness, and swelling of the tonsils, sometimes with exudates or pus patches. Chronic or recurrent tonsillitis may lead to enlarged tonsils, persistent irritation, halitosis, frequent colds, and discomfort while swallowing. It often causes systemic symptoms such as fatigue, headache, mild fever, malaise, and cervical lymphadenopathy. Complications may include peritonsillar abscess, rheumatic fever, and glomerulonephritis in severe bacterial infections. Predisposing factors include low immunity, exposure to cold or damp weather, repeated infections, and poor hygiene.
Homoeopathy treats tonsillitis by addressing the inflammatory process, constitutional susceptibility, and systemic manifestations. Remedies are selected based on the character of the pain, presence of exudate, throat dryness, swallowing difficulty, associated fever, chilliness, and aggravating/relieving factors. Homoeopathic medicines aim to reduce pain, inflammation, fever, and discomfort, promote healing, and prevent recurrence. Constitutional remedies support the immune system and reduce susceptibility to infections.
Sudden onset with intense redness, dryness, and heat of the tonsils. Pain worsens with swallowing; patient may feel throbbing or pulsating pain. High fever, flushed face, restlessness, and sensitivity to touch. Often worse on right side. Useful in hot, acute inflammatory tonsillitis.
Tonsils are enlarged, swollen, and covered with gray-white patches. Painful swallowing, excessive salivation, bad breath, metallic taste, and night sweats may be present. Patient feels weak, chilly, and restless. Suited for bacterial tonsillitis with pus formation.
Sharp, splinter-like pain on swallowing, especially when touched or cold drinks are taken. Patient is sensitive, irritable, and worse in cold or damp weather. Tendency to abscess formation. Suited for suppurative tonsillitis.
Severe burning pain, dryness, and raw feeling in the throat. Patient is anxious, restless, with prostration and thirst for small sips of water. Pain worse at night and from cold; better from warmth. Often accompanied by digestive weakness.
Red, swollen tonsils with stinging, burning, and tenderness. Swallowing is painful. Patient feels heat, restlessness, and swelling in neck lymph nodes. Worse from touch or warmth. Useful for early-stage inflammation with edema.
Pain radiates from throat to ears. Tonsils are dark red or bluish, swollen, with difficulty swallowing solids or liquids. Pain worsens at night and is relieved by warm drinks. Often associated with muscular soreness in throat and neck.
Enlarged tonsils in children, frequent infections, weak immunity, slow recovery. Patient appears timid, shy, and easily fatigued. Chronic recurrent tonsillitis with thickened, pale, or nodular tonsils.
Throat symptoms worse on left side. Pain is burning, raw, and cutting on swallowing. Patient may feel restless, sensitive to touch, and hot. Better with cold drinks; worse with warm drinks. Often associated with hormonal or circulatory imbalance.

Thick, ropy mucus in throat, especially in tonsillar crypts. Pain on swallowing solids, better from warm drinks. Chronic or recurrent tonsillitis with tough exudates.
Chronic enlargement of tonsils with swelling of neck lymph nodes. Recurrent infections, slow healing, and tendency to pus formation. Patient is sensitive, chilly, and low resistance.
Pain worsens on swallowing cold food or drinks. Swelling with tendency to abscess formation. Sensitive to cold, touch, and drafts.
Tonsils are enlarged with sticky mucus and chronic inflammation. Child is weak, easily fatigued, and slow to recover. Useful in chronic lymphatic tonsillitis.

Tonsillitis is an inflammatory condition of the tonsils, ranging from acute, painful attacks to chronic recurrent enlargement.

Early intervention, constitutional treatment, and attention to lifestyle and diet optimize recovery and prevent chronic complications.
