Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of 18yrs old female having enlarged circumvallete papillae , a swollen tonsil in the right side as well as swollen lymph node in the same side with a slight pain occurring several times a day and also have a small white layer on tongue which you suppose is thrush.
I would advise you the following:
- Get a consultation of your Doctor and get examined.
- Tests of blood and urine
- Swab from the throat from the infected area for gram staining, culture sensitivity and get started on proper antibiotic and continue till you are alright.
I find this answer helpful
