Hi everythone, thanks very much in advance for any help
I have been battling Tonsilitis for 5 days now, I've taken a course of Amoxicillin 500mg 3 times a day but my throat has not improved what so ever.
I've noticed throughout the week that my gums are receeding (my teeth kind of look bigger?) and have become very tender, my mouth is producing a lot more saliva than it normally does and I have these small white spots on the tip of my tongue and ceiling of my mouth (behind my front upper teeth).
I have been given another course of antibiotic to take but I'm not sure if it is going to make my (what I'm assuming is Gingivitis) worse, this antibiotic is metronidazole 400mg 1x 3 times a day.
What is my best course of action here? Take both simultaneously as I've been instructed? I just wanted a second opinion, I'm so tired of being in pain.
Ivan.
