What is up with my swollen tonsils?

Question

I have swollen tonsils and lymphnodes with headaches and slight fever. I don't know what is wrong with me. Any ideas

Answer 1

See an ENT. You may need to have them removed. Good luck. 2D

Answer 2

i still have my tonsils too. if you keep having tonsillitis i bet your doctor will opt to take them out. there is as new procedure for taking out tonsils now that is much better than the way it used to be. the doctors use a laser and cut out your tonsils so the pain is reduced and the recuperation time is much easier on you. my daughter had her tonsils out using the laser method and she was fine.

Answer 3

You probably have tonsilitis. The only thing that will make you feel better is to have them removed. Best visit a doctor soon. They can actually swell up so much that you will stop getting air.

Answer 4

Swollen tonsils and lymph nodes only indicate really that your body is fighting an infection. So you probably just have a cold and this is your body's way of coping.

Answer 5

The obvious answer is to get the answer from your doctor. Those symptoms could mean a number of things, including tonsillitis, influenza, cancer, et al.

Answer 6

You sound like you have strep. I've had it a few times. It's not a big deal once you get on antibotics, but it's very contagious before that.

Answer 7

could be a cold but maybe a problem of eating. go on a diet of only natural food. u would be amazed what would happen when u get alot healthier from just eating healthy food - no meat

Answer 8

Maybe you gotta remove your tonsils? i suggest you go see a doctor

Answer 9

if recurrent tonsillitis I means more than 4 times / year you have to remove them by E.N.T. physicians soon

Answer 10

Strep Throat is going around. Better get it checked out!
