Avatar m tn In addition to the swollen left tonsil, this was several weeks before the swollen tonsil, I have been having weird tingly feeling on my right mustache and sometimes burning feeling around my lips, at one point I had a re spot develop on the corner of my left side of my mouth while she first say her cold sore that week. We are both waiting for our results from PP maybe the end of this week.
Avatar f tn However, sometimes they can grow into larger formations that can cause your tonsils to swell, which would be a reason for one tonsil to be larger than the other one, and they often have an unpleasant odor.
Avatar f tn I looked in the mirror with a flashlight, and my left tonsil was swollen. Allergies are super bad in my area right now, and I get a lot of allergy symptoms every spring so I didn't think much of it. This afternoon the pain got worse, so I checked my throat again. While my left tonsil is still quite swollen, it's not super red, it doesn't have any white patches, it's just swollen and painful.
Avatar n tn sorry for the previous post... hey, I have developed a similar condition, one tonsil is enlarged with a cyst on it. all the ENT's say that, they wouldn't worry, and they attribute it to the recurrent tonsil infections I have always had since childhood. Also I was a smoker for around 3 years, left it few weeks ago. Also I don't have any difficulty in swallowing.
Avatar f tn Monday my ear started hurting and one side of my throat. Then two days ago I noticed only one swollen tonsil which scared me. I went to the doctor and she acted like it was not a big deal. But it really hasn't went down much and my throat doesn't hurt so much anymore. Like you, I'm under EXTREME stress from my mother being sick, loss of job, abusive relationship situation. I can't leave it, because I have no job as of yet.
Avatar n tn This sequence of events suggests that your one-sided tonsillar enlargement was preceded by an upper respiratory infection. The enlargement of only one tonsil with infection is quite unusual and is sometimes associated with the development a peri-tonsillar abscess. That is the development of a collection of pus in the tissue surrounding the tonsil. This is a serious situation and one that definitely warrants medical intervention.
Avatar n tn I was concerned about HIV and if having one swollen tonsil with no fever and swollen lymph nodes were symptoms and if the cancre sores are all related of could they be sepearate issues?
Avatar f tn For two weeks my tonsils have been swollen with white spots all over them. But i have no other symptoms at all, no fever, headache, rash, cough, congestion or anything else. I've been holding off going to the doctors cause I feel fine, should I wait more or should I make an appointment?
454221 tn?1259445739 I have this feeling in my throat that something is stuck or swollen. I think I feel my right tonsil swollen and it seems to come and go, but for the most part it is swollen. No sore throat. I have had blood test done and methacoline challenge test done. Blood work shows allergies and methacoline challenge test shows it could be vocal cord dysfunction. I still have to see a allergist and speech therapist. My question is does my swollen tonsil have anything to do with this?
Avatar n tn I've had a swollen tonsil for about a week- it is slowly getting better but I'm still concerned. My tonsils began to swell the day after I gave unprotected oral sex. I never had a fever or any pain (or any white spots), and my left tonsil was always more swollen. I went to a doctor last week, and he prescribed an antibiotic mouthwash and then penicillin, neither of which worked. I'm now waiting for blood work results. Could this be anything serious?

Avatar f tn i have one swollen tonsil, my throat is slightly red, the other tonsil is, inflammed, i've had 2 shots of rocephin and have been taking amoxicillin, and now azithromycin,.....i'm concerned because 2 shots should have killed any bacteria i would imagine,.....the antibiotics seem to do nothing,,..... i'm lost.
Avatar n tn Hi, a few months back I was diagnosed with tonsilitis and the treatment there was all fine. I recently realised my right tonsil and lymph node were swollen with cold symptoms and was told I have tonsilitis again and I am now on antibiotics. Blood test for glandular fever came back negative.
Avatar n tn I have similar problems! Swollen tonsil on one side, also swollen lymph nodes on neck (much larger on side of swollen tonsil) and extreme tiredness and muscle aches! Also my hair has gotten a lot thinner! Been tested for nearly everything, had the tiredness, muscle aches and hair thinning for 8 months, and the tonsil and lymph node for 3 months now!
3181487 tn?1344542098 mine is swollen since this march with one persistent white spot.! I tested positive for Cpn & strep throat ( ASO titer was +ve ) .
Avatar m tn I think, my RIGHT tonsil (green arrow) is swollen and I had long term sore throat before but now only happened in the morning(when i woke up) and there are some yellowish color in my throat and long swollen shape (blue arrow)... My tongue has a red dots on it, looks like strawberry and i have a bone ache, joint shooting, and tiredness. I have no loss weight, but actually gain weight. Could this be an infection or another problem?
Avatar n tn i have one swollen tonsil and it doesnt seem to hurt the only thing that bothers me is when i swallow. it feels like i have this ball on my tonsil. what could this mean?
Avatar n tn I am 31 years old. I had my tonils removed when I was 10. About 5 months ago, I had a horrible sore throat, and decided to look down my throat to see if it was red. I don't recall ever looking down my throat before, so I have no clue what it looked lke before. Anyway, when I looked I saw a round/oval shaped lump on the left side where tonsils should be.
Avatar m tn m worried most is that my left tonsil is still swollen . Everything else come and went one by one , wich I think is not normal for ARS .
Avatar f tn Now a year later have swollen lymph nodes on my neck for about a month, swollen taste buds, and a swollen tonsil (my lymph node is more swollen on that side). My doctor said I had a sinus infection and put me on amoxicillin granted it only been 3 days but i have not noticed a difference. I also had a lot of mucus in my throat too which I was coughing up. Also I was having constipation issues which seemed to be semi-resolved.
Avatar f tn Hi my uvula is hanging down touching my tonsil and I'm coughing a lot plus my left tonsil feel funny
Avatar n tn Sorry, one more thing. I have developed a sudden fever over the past few hours. I did have a cold last week but I went to the doctor and he didn't prescribe anything since it didn't look bad and I had no fever or any symptoms besides sore throat. I am very concerned that these rapid onset of symptoms are due to the oral sex I performed on a potentially high risk male two nights ago. Thanks.
Avatar n tn He discovered i also have a swollen tonsil. The swollen tonsil could be from post nasal drip, and the right tonsil is swollen because i sleep on my right side and so it is subject to the nasal drip. Still, he insisted i get an MRI because a swollen tonsil could indicate other problems - like a tumor for one. i had the MRI last night and hope to get results in several days.
Avatar f tn I had a look in my mouth and the back of my throat was a bit red on the right side that was scratchy, not the tonsil but the bit just infront and neither tonsil looked swollen. It doesnt feel like a sore throat usually does, not sure if this is anything to be concerned about? From looking in my mouth I noticed that my left tonsil (so the opposite side to where i felt pain) was slightly larger than the right tonsil i.e.
3181487 tn?1344542098 I have had a swollen right tonsil and lymphnode under my chin for years now. It usually doesnt hurt, but sometimes swells even more and gets white bumps on it. Ive always been given antibiotics which with help the white bumps but the right tonsil always remains huge in comparison to the left. I was just finally referred to a ENT. Ive read alot about this being associated with cancer and its scary. Anyone have any insight on why one tonsil would always be huge?
Avatar f tn My right tonsil is swollen and has been for 2 months. The tonsil itself doesn't seem to hurt but when I yawn it is definately uncomfortable in my ear and sometimes when I swallow it is uncomfortable in my throat but nothing extreme. I was in to see my regular doctor in April and she did a strep test, which was negative, and also looked at my ears which she said there was a little fluid.
