Hello, guest.
The symptoms you're describing – a swollen or enlarged tonsil on one side and a hard lump below the ear that causes pain when touched – warrant medical attention. One tonsil being larger than the other could be due to several reasons, including infections like tonsillitis, or in rare cases, more serious conditions. Tonsillitis can be caused by viral or bacterial infections and often presents with symptoms like sore throat, difficulty swallowing, and swollen lymph nodes.
The lump you're feeling could be a swollen lymph node, which often enlarges due to infection or inflammation in the area. Lymph nodes are part of the immune system and can become swollen in response to various conditions.
The combination of an enlarged tonsil and a painful lump could indicate an infection or other condition that needs medical evaluation. It's especially important to get checked if these symptoms persist, worsen, or are accompanied by other signs like fever, night sweats, or unexplained weight loss.
