I think I've got one. Had it for a few weeks but its getting bigger and more uncomfortable.

I know you shouldn't self-diagnose but after looking at many many websites and pictures I definitely think I have one. I can't get a doctors appointment until April.
Of course I've been googling and convicted myself its something terrible. I've always suffered problems with my tonsils but I've never had this before. I'm convicted its something really bad.

Just wondering if anyone's ever had one, what the treatment is, if they pose a serious risk? Should I make an emergency appointment, does it need treating right away?

Thanks in advance
