What Causes Sore And Swollen Tonsils With History Of Tonsillitis?

My tonsils are extremely sore and swollen. It is difficult to swallow. There are small red spots on what I believe us called the soft palate. I have a history of strep throat or tonsillitis, however I currently began practicing oral sex with a new partner so I m not sure of what is most likely the cause. There are no other symptoms
