What Causes Blood Blister On The Tonsils With Ear Infections And Muscle Spasm?
I have had a series of ear infections from May until now. I have a slight dull pain in each ear that feels like pressure possibly from allergies. Also, I get tonsil stones. Today I notice a blood clot/blister on one tonsil. It is not enlarged but the opposite, looks deflated. My other tonsil is bigger in size and always has been. On the same side of the blister, my mouth hurts. Dentist said I had a muscle spasm. Knowing all ear nose and throat are related, should I be concerned about the blood blister???

hi
you have mentioned two set of symptoms
1. reccurrent ear infection : this can be due to middle ear infection secondary to your upper respirartory tract infection,or it can be due to some primary infection of external ear.
2.tonsil related symptoms seems to be the result of chronic tonsillitis .
also you should have mentioned your age in the question.
for both of these symptoms you need to visit an ent specialist and get youself examined properly and seek proper treatment.
