Viral tonsillitis

<p>Angina is an infection most often caused by a virus.</p>
<p><strong>Antibiotics are ineffective against viruses</strong>: therefore, there is no benefit in prescribing them for viral angina because <strong>they do not reduce the severity or duration of symptoms</strong>. On the contrary, the unjustified use of antibiotics promotes the emergence of resistant bacteria.</p>
<p>To relieve your pain, it is advisable to take <strong>paracetamol</strong>. <br />Be careful, <strong>the use of anti-inflammatories or corticosteroids increases the risk of complications and should be avoided.</strong></p>
<p>Fever usually disappears in 2-3 days and sore throat in 7 days.<br /><strong>Consult your doctor again if the fever persists for more than 3 days, if other symptoms appear, or if your health does not improve.</strong></p>
