Throat sx's: For significantly sore throat w swollen tonsils / lymph nodes – see physician & get a strep throat test & culture. Antibiotics are imperative for Strep Throat. Try saltwater gargles. Mix tsp of salt in 8 oz of warm water – gargle w this several times/day. You can gargle w Aloe Vera juice a couple of times per day. A mix of chamomile tea w honey & a small amt of lemon juice helps.

Time to see your Dr.: You didn't mention if you are having fever, chills or other associated symptoms, but it's time to see your doctor with your tonsillar exudates showing, and get treated ahead of other symptoms. Let her/him diagnose and manage you.
