Dr. Xu Gang
If tonsillar enlargement is caused by tonsillitis, medication can be used for treatment under a doctor's guidance, such as cefixime. Additionally, detoxifying and heat-clearing medicines, like Xiashangju granules, may be taken concurrently. If the tonsillar enlargement is grade III or higher, surgical removal of the tonsils may be considered as a treatment option.
