What Causes Pain And Swelling In Tonsil?
My right tonsil is swollen and hurts. There is a black spot on it. I went to the doctors and he put me on antibiotics. If it doesn't go away he is sending me to a ent specialists. I don't have insurance so what do I do if I have to go to a specialists. Could this be cancer?

It would be better if you can send me the pictures of your throat so that I can suggest you better. Also tell me do you have any neck swelling palpable?
