If they are inflamed they will look quite large and may have white or red spots on them. You can see them in the mirror. Tonsils can be effected by viruses or bacteria as part of another illness, so in effect tonsillitis may be a symptom of something else. Sore throat may be bacterial inflammation deeper in the throat, but it is just a lay term for several types of throat problems. A sore throat would exclude laryngitis which is inflammation of the voice box. So pain and discomfort between the larynx and the top of the throat (pharynx) may be considered to be a sore throat.
