Hello,
I had both of my tonsils removed about 2 years ago. Since then I have had a reoccurring abscess where my left tonsil was. This has happened about 3-4 times. Every time, just as I am becoming concerned enough to go to the emergency room, it drains on its own. Now in that same spot there is sort of a lump of tissue as if maybe my tonsil is growing back? Or could it even be a cancerous tumor? I've been trying to make an appointment with the ENT who performed my surgery but had to book an appointment over a month out and I no longer have the same insurance so I'll have to pay out of pocket. I get really bad anxiety over any sort of medical issues so I really wanted to get a professionals opinion in the mean time.
