Swollen Tonsil

My right tonsil is swollen and has been for 2 months. The tonsil itself doesn't seem to hurt but when I yawn it is definately uncomfortable in my ear and sometimes when I swallow it is uncomfortable in my throat but nothing extreme. I was in to see my regular doctor in April and she did a strep test, which was negative, and also looked at my ears which she said there was a little fluid. She recomended a steriod nasal spray which I did not end up using because I was doing an IVF cycle and my rep. end. did not want me using it at the time. I also was taking dexamethasone for some antibodies while I was on the cycle and it may have helped a little (I honestly didn't notice, I had other things on my mind) I guess my question is should I be concerned that this may be something more serious since it is just one tonsil and it has been 2 months? Please any advice would be appreciated, I'm already a stressball from everything else and now this is weighing on my mind.

I have the same problem accompanied with my throat burning.  Regular doctors seem to be of no help for problems like this.  I recently saw my ear, nose, and throat doctor.  He told me my tonsil was swollen due to acid reflux and put me on Protonix.  The swelling hasn't seemed to go down, but I don't have burning in my throat anymore from the acid reflux.
You shouldn't worry too much....but I would go see an ENT to find out what exactly is wrong.  He/she might suggest that you have your tonsil(s) removed.  Good luck!
