I have a red & irritating palatine tonsil. The doctors told me it's because I'm breathing from my mouth since my nose is closed. I took an anti histamine spray but no results and there's more mucus.

The correction of the blocked nose comes first.

Dr. Mohannad Al Qudah Otolaryngology (ENT)
The mouth isn't designed for breathing, the nose is. It has many important roles in creating good air quality to pass through the respiratory system. So the pathology in your nose should be corrected by medication and if failed, by surgery.
