For years I ve suffered with a sore throat on and off in the spring and in winter.Once as a teenager I even had strep throat.But through it all my throat, tonsils,etc always returned to normal.Also once every so often I ve always gotten tiny tonsil stones that are just little bigger than a sesame seed.About 3 years ago I had tonsillitis for a week or a little over a week.After it passed my uvula still had red veins on it that were hard to miss.Since then my tonsils would randomly swell up feeling like I had a lump in my throat.Sometimes it was only my right tonsil though but this time it was more than my right tonsil swelling.This time a hint of tonsillitis tried to flare up.I tried to treat it in a way that would normally knock off any cold or virus.The Apple Cider Vinegar stopped it for awhile but it returned a day later.Before it returned I noticed that my tonsils had red veins just like my uvula does.Also my tonsils are pale (that may be due to me being kind of anemic) my left one bled a little when I tried to remove the white/pale yellow stuff from it.My question is what are the red veins from and will I ever be able to get rid of them?Also does the night air keep infecting me with tonsillitis?I ve noticed that everytime I m out at night,especially during the winter that I end up sick in some way the next morning.I apologize for typing so much but I wanted to fully explain what led to my current situation.Thank you.
