Hey. Thanks for writing at HCM. Well indulging in certain practices maybe pleasurable but it's not very healthy. Could lead to various problems.
Could you tell me if you are feeling any discomfort? With tonsils enlarged and the patches seen on it, an inflammatory process like this will cause discomfort like difficulty swallowing,talking and pain in throat. That is it could be tonsillitis.
