Swollen tonsillar
Hi my tonsillar lymph nodes are slightly swollen, and extremely tender to touch, on both sides. Also pains when pressed, or when yawning or any similar jaw activity. Slight pain below jaw as well. Started yesterday, along with slight coughing and blocked nose. Is it more likely to be an infection due to cold, or is there any other cause which shows similar short term symptoms. Thanks
