Sorry to keep bringing this up, but now I am freaking out again!! Of course. I posted in my original thread but am making it a new one too hoping somebody sees this who can relate/calm me down a bit.
So I went to an ENT in Feb about my tonsil because I did not know that's what it was (lingual tonsil back of tongue) and he said it was a tonsil that had grown back, not concerned. Now I am scared because I have been having this issue with a bubble forming on/infront of it on my tongue, and then it pops eventually. It came back thuogh when I was sick this week and if I feel under my jaw in the floor of my mouth I can feel a bump/gland on one side (with the tonsil) but not the other. Is it normal to have this gland on one side and not the other???
I freaked myself out because I have been able to feel this difference since about April of this year but just attributed it to being my tonsil. But stupidly since I have been sick, I googled about tonsils and it said that signs of tonsil cancer can be 1. one tonsil larger on on side and 2. sore that won't heal. What if that is what this bubble is? I have had it show up and pop before!!!!
Dentist a month ago didn't notice any thing, but he didnt really look around back there. Also had my glands felt by doctor about two weeks ago and didn't say anything was abnormal, but she didn't really feel around up under my jaw and bottom of my mouth ...
Please respond!!!!
