I am seriously freaking out!
Do your tonsils grow and could just one change shape or get bigger? I have no pain or anything like that so not tonsillitis. I've been to docs a couple of times over the years about one being bigger than the other and they haven't said much beyond its probs just an individual difference. But niw im thinking the bigger one is noticeably bigger again than before, it so does not sound good does it when you talk about an asymmetry actually changing and becoming more so.....
I drink alcohol more than I should and this is a risk factor for this type of cancer. I'm 33
