Increased Tonsil, Hurts While Taking Dairy Products

I felt a sensation of something being in my throat . When I looked it appears as though my right tonsil is slightly larger than the other. The sensation has gone away but the tonsil still looks larger to me. I have had no discomfort other than milk or dairy makes my throat hurt. I ate 12 of the hottest wings I ve ever had the day before I noticed the sensation. Are these related? When will the tonsil return to normal size?

Hello,

Welcome to HCM.
You should take a full course of treatment of tonsillitis though your symptoms has reduced to your satisfaction.
The tonsillitis you are suffering will need operation the tonsillectomy if it occurs more often or tonsill does not go to normal after full medication.

Good Luck.

Thanks
