A few days ago I was eating potato chips. Unfortunately i swallowed to soon and didnt chew properly. When I went to swallow one of the chips in my mouth scraped across my right tonsil and down my throat. Since then I have not been able to swallow anything or talk. Could I have an infection in my tonsil because of this and how can I repair the problem? I want to avoid the doctor's if at all possible because I have had nothing but bad experiences with them. What would you suggest for a person in my situation?
