Is There A Possibility For The Tonsil To Fall Off By Itself?

Hi, I ve noticed as past 2 weeks or so that my left tonsil has dropped and it looks like it s almost ripped at the top... I can feel it when I laugh at the back of my throat theres a slight pain. I m worried that my tonsil will fall off??? Can this happen??

thank you for asking the question.
you are sayin that your tonsil is dropped and you can feel it. tonsil fall off can not occur, so my advise is consult the ENT doctor and thorough check up can resolve your problem. because tonsil is supported well with surrounding tissue, so tonsil can not fall off without any cause. so take doctor advise.
hope this will helpful to you.
