Lozenges
Lozenges are another common home remedy for tonsillitis. These can easily be found in most drug stores or convenience stores, and come in a variety of flavors.
Lozenges can help your tonsillitis by giving it a cooling action, which also helps reduce inflammation. Some also contain some herbs that can help soothe a sore throat.
Be sure to look for lozenges that have low sugar content, as too much sugar is not good for your health. Additionally, try to avoid giving lozenges to children younger than 4 years old, as young children might accidentally swallow them and cause choking.
It would be a good idea to have a pack of lozenges handy at home in case someone has tonsillitis. This is especially useful if you or your family members are prone to having tonsillitis.
Fluids
Lastly, it’s important to take in lots of fluids. Whether it’s tea, hot soup, or even cold drinks, fluids can provide a lot of relief for someone with tonsillitis.
Taking in fluids can also help your body recover, especially if you’ve been having a fever in addition to your tonsillitis.
