Why Does The Child Feel Something Stuck In The Throat With A Growth On The Tonsil ?

Today my child began complaining about a feeling of something stuck in the throat. I looked in her mouth to see if I could see anything. One of the tonsils appears to have armlike growth protruding from it. The growth is the same color as the rest of her tonsil. Should I be concerned? What could this be?
