I’m really worried and don’t know what to do

Hi I'm Charlie I'm only 19 I'm pregnant and one of my tonsils is swollen and hurts to swallow and hurts my ear also and I'm worried because of also being pregnant idk what to take for it I have tried warm salt water almost threw up all I can take is paracetamol so I have been told while I'm pregnant and I'm just a panicking person and so I'm really really worried if anyone could help me maybe 

  • Hello Charlie-2001, 

    Try not to worry too much if you can. It sounds painful poor you. I think it would be a good idea if you haven't done it already to give your doctor a call. Do mention of course that you are pregnant. I think talking to your GP will give you the reassurance you need at the moment and they may have some helpful suggestions for you. 

    I hope you feel better soon Charlie! 

    Best wishes,

  • Thank you the pain has worsened but I'm also in hospital already worried bc I'm getting pains all the time in different places and I don't know what that could be it's very painful to move and I still have tonsillitis I think it's tonsillitis but I'm not to sure but it really hurts to eat and move and I don't know if they r separate pains or the same 

  • I'm so nervous bc I'm pregnant and my tonsils have been hurting for 4-5 days now it's hard to drink and eat and take my tablets for pain and pregnancy and I'm just worried sick bc I'm just feeling pains after pains and I don't know what is being caused by pregnancy or something else
