Enlarged tonsil on one side for years

My husband has been having problems with his ear for the last 2.5years constantly feels blocked and occasional pain. He has been to ENT twice and had a brain MRI in may 2021 which came back clear. He went again the other day and the dr looked in his throat and asked if his left tonsil had always looked like that. The dr then checked his notes and said oh it was like that in 2021 so if it was anything you’d not be here and smiled!! Which is disgusting! We’ve since googled and can’t seem to find anything apart from cancer when looking at tonsil asymmetry! Worried out my mind. He thinks his tonsils has always looked like this. He suffered with tonsillitis a lot as a child and ear infections. Has anyway else had anything similar ??? 

  • I suffered with tonsillitis strep from April to July 2023 and only just went away, I went ENT they put camera down throat annd said lest tonsil is inflamed and larger than right and sent me for mri scan and blood test for bacterial infections. Everything came back normal and I was discharged. Turns out I had a bad case of tonsilites that took longer to clear. If that’s any help as I was convinced I had cancer aswell because of how many times I would get it antibiotics would clear it up but week later it would come back and this happend for months.
