What should I do if I have painless tonsil ulcers?
Disease description:
A few days ago, I noticed an increase in phlegm production. When I looked in the mirror, I noticed that my tonsils appeared ulcerated, yet I felt no pain. What should I do if my tonsils are ulcerated but not painful?

Treatment is typically carried out with medications. Patients should avoid spicy and irritating foods in daily life. Symptoms usually improve after one week of treatment; however, if the condition worsens, prompt medical evaluation at a hospital is essential to prevent delays in diagnosis and management. Additionally, patients may apply Kaitoujian Spray directly onto the tonsillar surface, which has shown noticeable efficacy—purulent tonsillar symptoms generally begin to subside within one week.
