Hi Guys,

I've had a little problem - i keep getting recurring tonsillitis and around October time it came back much much worse.
This bout of Tonsillitis gave me lots of pain in my left ear.

After the pain and tonsillitis had gone, my tonsils are still swollen (2 months after) and i used to feel as though i was choking/gagging on them - a big problem that caused many panic attacks as i am an emet.

In the past month i've started getting really dizzy, it's pretty much constant. Could this be an inner ear infection caused by the tonsillitis? My sister had Labrynthitis and it comes back very often and makes her very ill which i am terrified of.

I don't really want to go to the doctors with the Noro pandemic going on, but if i HAVE to i will.

Thanks for reading, any comments appreciated!

It could be an inner ear infection and you should really go to see your doctor to have it checked as you may need a course of antibiotics. I hope you get well soon.
