Mt Throat has connected to the back of my tongue??? Please Help!!! :(

So I have had this sore throat for 3 months now and my tonsils have been inflamed as well, I only have tiny bumps in the back of my throat and it's all red and puffy I have tried to gargle with salt water but that didn't work. So my Mum told me to wait and see if it got better, it never did. So she got me a prescription of Amoxicillin I have started taking those 3 times a day now but I have noticed how my throat and tongue are connected; I can't stick out my tongue without dragging my throat with it.. What do I have?? And is this normal?? How can I get better!?!?! ??? :( PLEASE HELP!!! :(

You need to go see an ENT (ear nose and throat) doctor. You clearly need something other than what your mom gave you because your throat is getting worse. Sounds like what happened to me and I ended up needing a tonsillectomy. Quit stalling and go to the doctor and get checked out. You'll only get worse if you leave it.
