Tonsil

Hi, I was just wondering if someone could help me. 

I noticed I have multiple tonsil stones which I was able to remove two, but the rest are lodged behind my tonsil. 

I also noticed when tense my throat that I have what looks like a bean shaped sack directly under one tonsil. There are brown dots all over my tonsils, and very thin white tissue paper like streaks over the back of my throat. 

Am I silly to think it could be a tumour ... ? 

22, occasionally have been a social smoker in the past. 

Thank you  

 

  • Hi Oakland and welcome to the forum.

    All sorts of things run through our minds when we're worried so you're not silly at all to think this but as you're worried the best thing to do is book an appointment with your doctor as they'll be able to examine you and let you know whether this is any cause for concern.

    Hopefully you'll get some advice from some of our members soon but fingers crossed this isn't anything serious.

    All the best,
