Having One tonsil bigger than another

2024-06-22 03:41:18
Hello Dr. I am 21 year old . From last one year my right side of tonsil is bigger than left side, no problem in eating and drinking. Sometimes needle pain is experienced in throat and ear. No one is commenting whether it is normal or not. Is it normal?

Tonsil size isn't very significant.. But you have inflammation in the post pharyngeal wall.
