Abstract
Tonsillitis is a frequent infection. Most of cases are viral and require only symptomatic treatment. Tonsillitis due to Corynebacterium diphteriae, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Fusospirochetosis require specific treatment. Antibiotic treatment of streptococcal tonsillitis is needed to avoid suppurative and non suppurative complications such as rhumatoid fever.
