Suggest Treatment For Swollen Glands In Throat

It started with both of my tonsils swollen. i only take my usual lozenges to heal it because its work well before.however this time my tonsil does not show any sign to shrink and my left tonsil keep swelling until it become red. the swollen area are now spreading towards my inner cheek and my jaws. i feel really uncomfortable. even to swallow liquid is hard for me. Im also having a light fever. So i went to see ENT doctor. what she did is she suck a few blood or liquid from my tonsil using a machine. she said to reduce the stress. then she gave me two antibiotics and pills, throat sprays and lozenges. she said i will be fine in 3 days time. but im not! the swollen area still the same. i cant barely talk like im used to be. its really effect my communication and pronouncation. it s hurt my cheek, jaw , and.ear too. its almost three weeks since my tonsils start to swell. i am really frightened right now. im afraid this is not only about swelling tonsils. Is it a.cancer or something to do with my gland? Because u dont have any cold or cough but there still gland coming out my throat. please help me heal this. ive never been in this situation. please give me some comment, answer, way to heal ,everything! i wanted this to be over. Please!!!
