My glands have been swollen for ages, every time they feel better they swell again within a few days.

My throat has horrible lumps in it, and every now and then big green and red globs come out of the back of my throat that smell absolutely rank!

What do you think is wrong with me?

Thanks for all your suggestions ... I think you are right that it is something to do with my tonsils, it sometimes hurts in my ears too ..

N.B I have already had my wisdom teeth removed, so it can't be that ...

It sounds like you could have tonsilites. There's two great things that worked for me when i had tonsilites they were golden seal and propellis you can buy them from health food shops and probably on the enternet too. I would suggest also that you go to your doctors to see what they say because just to be sure its not anything more serious.

yes it sounds like you have problems with your tonsils or maybe with your wisdom teeth. When i was 20 years old my throat kept swelling up and ear infections were an everyday thing. One day my throat swelled up so bad i could barely breathe. It turned out my wisdom teeth were turning in thier sockets and when i ate food the food that got stuck in those pockest was creating infections in my gums that went all the way to my ears as well as my throat. Once i had all four of my wisdom teeth pulled i never had a problem again. Either way you should of went to the doctor a long time ago. Hurry up and make an appointment!!!!

I thik it is tonscillitis too I suffer every year from it and get terrible earache at the same time. Go see your GP but in the meantime gargle with warm salty water this helps alot. Im afraid you cant do anything about the odour until the infection has cleared up. Hope you feel better xx

That's a condition called cryptic tonsils. You need to get them checked by a doctor. You should gargle with salt solution 3 times a day to help keep infection down in the meantime.

You could have Strep Throat or have Mono. You need to see a doctor right away. Some people can die if they have an infection that goes untreated. Didn't the famous Muppet guy die from Strep Throat? Jim Henson?

Go to an MD, They will check your tonsils and provide the appropriate treatment, Tonsils are out of the realm of a dentist. In most states a dentist looks at the tonsils as part of a screening and if anything is notice the protocol is to refer them to an MD for further evaluation.
