Terrified of possible tonsil cancer

hello, im 24 years old and 3 weeks ago I had an ulcer at the back of the throat just before the tonsil and a lump on my right tonsil my ulcer went away after about 5 days, its been 3 weeks now and the lump is still there! Has anyone experienced one tonsil being slightly more swollen than the other and everything has turned out okay? 

  • Hi paigedan,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. It may be hard for anyone here to advise on this so I would suggest that the best thing is for you to give your doctor a call if you are concerned. They are always best placed to advise specifically to you.

    I hope things improve soon for you.

    Wishing you all the best,
