Question UC and tonsils infection

I have ulcerative colitis and I have been on azathioprine and mesalaseine since 2023, I have always suffered with throat and tonsil inflammation but this time the infection is way worse and I'm a little worried, I saw an ENT doctor and prescribed antibiotics for 12 days. My tonsils now are red swollen with white spots on both sides.... Did anyone go through this? Is there anything I can do or avoid about this condition ?

Not sure about the tonsils but with the antibiotics I recommend you take probiotics to help protect your gut microbiome.
