Tonsil swelling
Hi guys. Hoping you can help with any info.
It started around 4 months ago.
I felt like I had something stuck on my left tonsil.
I noticed each morning without fail, it was swollen. It takes up half my throat and my uvula ends up sitting on it.
By around midday, the swelling goes down and it looks normal (ish) size.
During the day, it swells and goes down again.
I've noticed there are 2 tiny yellow, crystal looking bumps towards the back of it.
The feeling of something on it is pretty much constant.
I have been to the doctors 3 times.
They tell me they've never heard of this. I was given antibiotics just incase (they didn't help) and been told it could be anxiety (I really don't think it is)
Had anyone got any ideas? It's making me crazy. Google either says Cancer or tonsillitis! It can't be tonsillitis because it doesn't hurt or have pus on.
Thanks : )

The doctor you should see about this is an ENT; Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist. This is the doctor specifically trained in this area of medicine. If you do not know of one call your insurance provider and ask them to provide you the names of some ENT doctors in your area or call your local hospital's patient referral line.
