A member asked:

Can you tell me about antibiotics for tonsillitis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Culture: The best answer is that you need a culture and sensitivity of the tonsil tissue. The sensitivity by the bacteriology laboratory will then tell the physician two things. 1,) a pathogenic bacteria is present from the tonsillar culture and 2.) the appropriate antibiotics that will most likely be effective in eradicating the infection in the tonsils.
