Hello,
I have no tonsils and I have had a soar throat for oh say two weeks now. A week ago I went to dr and he saw nothing, don't understand that since the pain and hard to swallow is where the tonsils used to be. It seemed to subside for a couple of days but today it came back with a vengeance. All on the left side. The tongue feels like it has a sliver in it and the back where the jaw is above where the wisdom tooth used to be is swollen and has a white lump over a swollen red lump. It's very painful to swallow.. Now what? My teeth are starting to hurt now. Any suggestions besides salt water and vinegar swishes? Thanks..
