Hellooo...read through your query...I must say that it might be swollen due to local trauma while eating or some candida infection...and while using Listerine u should dilute with water and use otherwise it can cause burning.cause decapitation and inflammation of the tonsil in some cases...but don't worry...u can brush twice daily...scrape your tongue with tongue scraper(can reduce the load of microbes inhabiting and cause various tonsil infections).use mouth rinse(diluted).do salt water gargle(increase healing process).apply statin gel on the tongue to reduce fungal infection do this for a week or so and still not reducing meet a dentist and get the treatment based on the clinical situation...be happy and cool(that's the best way of treatment).hope your benefitted something with this reply.have a healthy day!!!
