Brief Answer:
Tonsillar inflammation

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I have gone through the image attached. It appears to be swollen tonsil. It is unusual for a one sided tonsillitis. I would request you to send an image of the opposite side too.

Have you tried any medications?
Do you have cough ?

Brief Answer:
Dental caries

Detailed Answer:
HI,

Thanks for the images.

One of the image shows dental caries. Do you have dental caries on both sides ?
Dental caries can cause the tonsils and lymph nodes in the throat to get swollen.

Do you have any sort of sensitivity or pain in the teeth ?
