Just enlargement of tonsils is not a disease and if there is associated throat pain then treatment is required. There are multiple crypts normally present in the tonsillar surface which are sometimes prominent. If you have throat pain and difficulty in swallowing then antibiotics needs to be changed

Next Steps

Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
