Tonsil cyst
I am feeling slight pain in throat and also running low fever around 99.4 from about a week. I noticed a cyst type thing hanging along the left tonsil and whitish and pinkish type in colour. Attached the picture of the cyst (the circled one). and full throat also. Sorry the pictures are not clear as it is difficult to click cyst picture because of its location. Please tell whether its something serious?? I am quite worried regarding this. Also my tongue is blackish these days.
