I've always had a large right tonsil since I can remember - it's always big. I used to get tonsillitis all the time as a child and even saw a specialist who said I would grow out of it. For years I would catch it but now I rarely do!
With Covid tests and things I've been paying more attention to my tonsils (due to swabbing) my right tonsil is still big, but my smaller one I think has changed(hard because we don't look at them much ha) I think it's got another lump near it/attached or maybe it's just bigger. I do currently have more of a severe cough now (I've had a bit of a one for a while after having RSV).
I got curious about one larger and one small and as you can image Googled and couldn't find much info on having a large tonsil my whole life (it never goes down), but loads of places popped up with the more severe things. Is it normal to have a big tonsil your whole life and a tiny one? I'm going to keep monitoring the small one ATM too.
