I went to the ENT Monday because i kept feeling phlegm in my throat. He discovered i also have a swollen tonsil. The swollen tonsil could be from post nasal drip, and the right tonsil is swollen because i sleep on my right side and so it is subject to the nasal drip. Still, he insisted i get an MRI because a swollen tonsil could indicate other problems - like a tumor for one. i had the MRI last night and hope to get results in several days.
