Is Removal Of Inflamed Tonsils Recommended While Having Persistent Pain?

I wanna know if I should get my tonsoles removed. I had a fever yesterday, it hurts super super bad when I swallow, I get this about every other week, & I have had this for 5 days now. I was just at the doctor & did not ask about my tonsoles but they confirmed I did not have strep.
