Tonsil Ulcer
I had difficulty swallowing last week and throat was paining like if there is needle inside.
I went to GP after 2 days and he said that it's ulcer on my tonsils.
He asked me only to gargle and take Sinarest LP in order to stop further spread.
It's been more than a week now pain is very less but it does pain sometimes.
I am scared if it is normal ulcer or something else.
Shall I get blood tests done?
Note:I had reflux acidity problem from last 1 month which is now quite under control. Also sometimes my upper left stomach hurts a little.
