Not very long. It really depends on what kind you have. There are 3 types of tonsillitis - acute, sub-acute and chronic. With the right medication it should take around 2 - 5 weeks depending on how bad yours is. If your tonsils are just red and swollen causing you to have a cough, bad throat, shivering and pains in the head and stomach will usually last around 2 to 4 weeks. Usually if you are suffering from a bad case which may include white patches on your tonsils can last well over a month. Like i said it depends how badly you're affected. You should see your local doctor - he will be able to tell you by looking at them how bad it is and how long it will last. If u suffer from alot of sore throats record every time you have one. You can then show your Doctor and he will be able to tell either if you need your tonsils out. But some doctors will say not to because your tonsils help fight of any infections that are tyring to appear on you.

There are two types of cells on the cervix's surface: squamous and columnar. Most cervical cancers are from squamous cells.Cervical cancer usually develops very slowly. It starts as a precancerous condition called dysplasia. This precancerous condition can be detected by a Pap smear and is 100% treatable. It can take years for precancerous changes to turn into cervical cancer. Most women who are diagnosed with cervical cancer today have not had regular Pap smears or they have not followed up on abnormal Pap smear results.Almost all cervical cancers are caused by HPV (human papilloma virus).
