My tonsils are quiet swollen and i have white spots/lumps on them. i had a sore throat but it is kinda gone but i find it hard to swallow and breath. I have had a bit of a headache and temperature if that means anything. I went to pick at the spots but they are kinda stuck and i made it bleed a bit. Please let me know what you think.
Still havent been to the docs but my throat doesnt hurt at all now and tonsils are not as swollen but still have spots on them. should i still go to docs or is it gettin better now????

i’m into hard-core snoring, especially when i’m tired or have cold. its been disturbing my family’s sleep for pretty long. i went to see the ENT doctor, who after diagnosing me suggested that my tonsil is the one of the main obstructions in my sleep. at that time my heart and lungs have to work all the more, so that i get proper oxygen. i’m 37 now and the doctor said that because of heart and lungs overworking, i may land up with my first-heart-attack by 50. thus i should have my tonsil removed which stop the obstruction in the intake of my oxygen and also will put an end to the tonsilitis which i frequently get during winters. i’m just not sure, as whether a tonsil removal, is the soln., to my snoring and its surgery would not result in any other unseen problems.

so for the past week i have been getting what i assume to be tonsil stones out of my throat. i’d say about 11 in total and they aren’t exactly small. i do not see any more so hopefully they are gone but i am wondering will i be more apt to get them again..this was the first time i have had anything like this

In the appearence of the throat and other general symptoms.

Thankyou.

My boyfriend hasn’t been diagnosed with mono just yet because he still needs to take a blood test but he said that he coughed up a tonsil stone on his right tonsil yesterday and i’m wondering if he could be sick with something else besides mono?
help : )

I’ve been a flautist for some time and I have to get my tonsils removed

about 5 days ago i started getting a sore throat. 4 days ago i woke up and could barely move i had NO energy. My friends aunt took my temp and it was 102.6. i rested the rest of the day and the next morning i felt even worse. my temperature was taken and it was 103.something. so they took me to the hospital. i was there for about 2 hours and the doctor told me i had tonsillitis. he gave me a painkiller, and antibiotic and some mucus membrane to numb my throat. since then i havent been feeling better, i am back at my own house and have been throwing up non stop.
here are all my symptoms. does anyone know what i have? or if my doctor was right about tonsillitis?
symptoms: VERY sore throat i cant swallow with out wincing. im not really hungry but VERY thirsty. the past 2 days i have been throwing up non stop and having really bad pains in my stomach. i have a horrible headache. and am drained of energy almost 24.7.
please no rude comments.
this is the most energy i have used in 5 days.

Please do not answer if you are under the age of 25 because my ENT said that after the age of 25, tonsil surgery pain is increased by tenfold. Don’t tell me how after 4 or 5 days you started getting better because I am on day 6 and it is getting worse. Is anyone else having the same excrutiating experience that I am having? If so, please tell me how you are coping with the pain. I am 27 years old, 6′3", 220 lbs and I have a very high pain tolerance but this is absolutely ridiculous. It hurts to breathe, I can’t swallow water because my tongue is swollen, and I especially can’t eat. Somebody please help me.
