2 month persistent throat pain/swollen tonsils. doctor is prescribing bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim). already tried caphalexin 5 weeks ago. help mildly. thoughts please?

Pharyngitis/tonsilit: This is either not due to bacterial infection or, less likely, you are infected with an organism resistant to these antibiotics. Suspect you might have infectious mononucleosis or a mononucleosis-like syndrome. Best to see an ENT doctor or an infectious diseases expert. Hope this helps.
