Glands up and sore throat

I'm really worried because I started with tonsil stones in august (something I've never had) they became sore so I had been on a course of antibiotics and then it came back so I had another course of antibiotics and my lymph node / gland is swollen and hasn't gone down. I now have only one swollen left tonsil which is sore and the lump in my neck is still there I'm worried can anyone help????

  • Hello and thank you for your email.

    I ma sorry to here about the infection you have.

    I am afraid no one here can diagnose anyone. The best thing to do if you are worried about any aspect of your health is to make a GP appointment to get checked out.  However, I can say that lymph nodes can become bigger in response to an infection. They can also take longer to go down to a normal size even if after the infection has gone.  So, you might want to wait a couple of weeks to see what happens.

    I hope you will be okay.

    Take care,

    Caroline
