You need to get both tonsils removed! What you had was an attack of Quincy! The peritonsillar abscess has now created a tract underneath the tonsil! Next time it recurs could be very dangerous! Pus could rapidly move through neck tissues to chest space into the mediastinum and could potentially kill you!
