If you have a painless swelling in the left tonsil area that has persisted for a long time, it could be due to tonsil stones, lymph node issues, or postnasal drip from your nasal congestion. Once better to check

For swelling in the left tonsil area without pain, Ayurveda offers a variety of holistic approaches to reduce inflammation and restore balance. It's important first to consider your dosha (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha) but given the swelling, we can gently balance Kapha, which governs fluids and can lead to stagnation.
Dietary adjustments are a good starting point. Opt for light meals, avoiding cold, oily, and heavy foods that can trigger Kapha. Embrace warm, well-cooked meals with spices like ginger and turmeric, which have anti-inflammatory properties. Try sipping on warm water or herbal teas such as tulsi and ginger throughout the day to help flush out toxins and stimulate digestion.
Incorporate gargling with warm salt water. Dissolve half a teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water, gargle for about 30 - 60 seconds a few times a day. This can help reduce local inflammation and keep the area clean.
Routine is key as well. Get adequate rest as it promotes the body's natural healing processes. Consider doing steam inhalation for five minutes before bed. Adding a drop of eucalyptus oil can offer added benefits through its purifying effects.
When it comes to herbs, Trikatu—a combination of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger—can be helpful in balancing Kapha. You might also try turmeric milk before bedtime, a traditional remedy known for its soothing properties.
If you notice changes or if the swelling persists, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional. While Ayurveda can be supportive, it's important to ensure there's no underlying condition that requires immediate medical attention. Ensuring hydration, maintaining a balanced diet, and regular practices, can often provide relief without complications. Always listen to your body and seek further advice if necessary.
