Brief Answer:
It can be normal.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and I see the photo you attached here is my advice.

I don't think this is something to worry about if you usually have it like this.
The tonsils may differ in shape from one another.
If the tonsil doesn't hurt and is not red or with white spots there is nothing to worry about.



Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
