Reason For Bleeding Tonsil After Suffering From Sore Throat?

Hello, my tonsil was bleeding earlier, I had a sore throat, but it's gone for a day, and suddenly today my tonsil started bleeding. Also I didn't take a lot of water during the cold, and I had to wake up few times last night to drink water cause my throat was extremely dry, is it possible to be the dryness that damaged a blood vessel or somethin? Thank you

Hello

It is unlikely that the dryness has damaged a blood vessel, rather there may be a throat infection , which is causing the dryness and the bleeding. Please meet your ent doctor as you may need antibiotics for the same, thanks
