A member asked:
Can tonsillitis be cured if so how?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Medicine: Most tonsillitis is caused by a virus so the treatment is to manage the symptoms until the virus gets better. Some is caused by strep or other bacteria and you would need to see a health care provider to tell.
