What Could Blisters On Tonsil With Foul Taste In Throat Suggest?
Hello, I have 4 flesh looking blisters behind my left tonsil which has all my life been enlarged. It looks like there s a clear liquid in them. I have been experiencing very foul taste on the back of my throat every now and then. Could this be cancer? Thanks.
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to herpangina. Herpangina is a common childhood illness caused by a virus. It's characterized by small, blister-like ulcers on the roof of the mouth and in the back of the throat. The infection may also cause a sudden fever, sore throat, headache, and neck pain. Both conditions are caused by enteroviruses. I recommend using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms. I also recommend to rest.
Hope my answer was helpful.

Kind regards!
