Tonsilitis

2018-02-11 22:48:02
I have a swollen left tonsil that is bleeding and making it hard to swallow. I want to know if I could go to my doctor and have them remove my tonsils. I was given a number to call years ago to have them removed but the number was disconnected and now I’m stuck with them. They always make it feel as though I have something stuck at the back of my throat and always get inflammed.

Swollen tonsil with bleeding needs to be evaluated. A biopsy from the tonsils would be required. Please do not delay take an immediate consultation with anENT specialist.
