Complete the course: The lesion on the tonsil is consistent with acute inflammation from Strep infection. Please complete the course of prescribed medication. If the lesion persists then it would warrant visiting your doctor again. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex. Get HPV vaccine.
