The tenure of tonsillitis depends on what type of tonsillitis it is. If it is of viral nature, it lasts usually from four to six days. Antibiotics become ineffective and it takes a little more time for recovery. If tonsillitis is of the bacterial nature, it can last up to 10 to 14 days.

Yes it is a common cause for foreign body sensation in the throat. It is called a tonsillolith. It is usually harmless and is due to collection of food particles in the tonsillar crypts (burrows). A good oral hygiene is essential with throat gargling. If the condition is too troublesome please consult your nearest ENT surgeon.

Nine out of 10 people with tonsillitis recover within a week. But you can get better more quickly than this. In four out of 10 people, the symptoms only last for three days. If your sore throat gets worse or doesn't start to improve after three to four days, contact your GP for advice.
