if anyones had it before whats best to help it and what can i eat without it being too painful.
oh and im supposed to be at work tomorrow. would it be best to call in sick
sleep, suck throat lozenges and dont smoke
If your throat feels dry, don't bother with soothers or anything else like that because although it'll feel better for a bit, it'll make it a lot worse afterwards. Just try to drink loads of water and rest, ice cream is good although any soft / liquidy kinda foods like custard should be fine.

Looks like you are not well enough to go to work. If you have a virus the best thing is to take it easy. Rushing around/working is not going to help you get better. As Roxy says plenty of liquids and rest. :)

Don't go to work - you need to rest and take it easy; tonsillitis is contagious anyway.
Yeh deffo don't go to work.
I had like minor tonsillitis last year and all I did was drink cold water and didn't really eat much at all. DEFFO avoid bread ahhhhh.

Had it earlier in the year. I found just drinking water everytime your throat starts to dry and having ice cream helps alot.
