Hi, I have been having trouble with my tonsils on and off for a few months now. I ve recently noticed I have some kind of piece of my right tonsil sticking out next to a hole. I do not have any pain and it doesn t look infected in any way, although it s quite uncomfortable to feel the little piece moving while I speak and eat food. What do you think is going on?
Hello, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you that take the swab from the suspected infection site. Do Grams Staining, culture and sensitivity from that swab. If it is infection it will give a species of bacteria causing infection and also the effective antibiotic on it. I will be happy to answer all your future concern. Thank you, ChatDoctorInfectious disease specialist. Wish you the best health at Chat Doctor.
