You may have sleep apnea. A sleep study will let you know. It helped several of my clients. (I work at a group home)

Question by Kiki: What should I do if I’ve had Tonsillitis for a month now?
I’ve had Tonsillitis for about a month now. I think it started during a flu I had the week of July fourth where I had a high fever of 101.4 degrees, chills, and my body felt as if it were on fire most of the first night. My flu went away after a few days of taking DayQuil and NyQuil, but I still had this sore throat. So, I went to the doctor and he prescribed me Moxatag since he said that I had tonsillitis. I also took two tests for mono and strep, but they came out negative. Then, after going through Moxatag, I went to the doctor again because my tonsils didn’t change and I think the medicine just kept them from getting worse yet they were still the same size. He prescribed me another anti-biotic that has tylenol in it and took another mono test in which they took more blood from me so they could see if I were developing mono. I still haven’t got the test back.

My tonsils are to the point where they are touching my uvula and they don’t have white patches, but I do have hot sweats and chills every now and then with headaches in the mornings and before I go to bed as well as not being able to sleep well at all because I can barely breathe. My voice is a “potato” like and I’m snoring now. I think I may have sleep apnea which it was really bad during the first week of having Tonsillitis. Now, I’m having restless sleep and it’s causing me to be even more tired and feeling ill. I’ve been taking medicine as well as drinking hot tea and gargaling salt water. My tonsils still haven’t changed. They are still big to the point where my uvula is sliding against them.

What should I do? And I’ve been trying to look up to see what kind of Tonsillitis I have, but can’t really seem to find an answer since my symptoms are not really severe as most others.

In many people a flu is accompanied with throat infection. By gargling salt water just once a day would give you only a temporary relief. You should gargle with warm salt water at least thrice a day. Each time you feel thirsty, you should drink only hot or warm liquids. Its not just having a cup of hot tea once or twice a day. Placing hot water bags on your chest would relieve chest congestion. Apply a cold balm or vicks on your chest, back, throat and nose. Hope these tips helps.

I’ve tried the nasal strips and they don’t seem to help I’ve tried them by themselves. I have even tried vicks with the nasal strips, to no avail.

You have to go see your doc to find out what is causing it. Snoring normally has a medical cause so go see your doc and get tested for things like sleep apnea and sinus problems so the doc can tell you how to take care of it.

Question by Ann Marie J: Any New Snoring Remedies, I’ve tried just about everything…?
I have a problem snoring from my nose – not my mouth. It is ruining my relationship! I have tried nose strips, a nose clip (it is awful) snore spray and the ENT Doc even gave me a prescription of Nasonnex. Nothing has helped. I already sleep on my side not my back. Anyone have any suggestions??
