Right side tonsil swelling
For a general check up I visited an ENT surgeon doctor last month. He did endoscopy of my throat and said there is no problem in my throat. But since few days I have been experiencing occasional mild pain in my right ear and right neck. Yesterday I put my finger in my throat and felt that my right tonsil is slightly bigger than the left one. Bilateral tonsils are not visible from outside, but can be understood by fingering. I have no pain in my throat. There is no difficulty in eating or drinking water. No swelling in neck or throat. The only problem is occasional mild neck and ear pain. Please tell me the reason for this. Is it a concern such as tonsil cancer? I am 34 years old. And I smoke.
