The best and the most common home remedy for tonsillitis is to gargle with warm salt water. The warm water will have a soothing effect and the salt will help kill the virus or bacteria. Plus, salt helps reduce inflammation, giving you instant relief.
Mix one teaspoon of table salt in a cup of warm water.
Gargle with the solution. Do not swallow it. Spit the water out after gargling.
Repeat this as often as possible for speedy recovery.
