Hi there,

The painful purple lump where your palatine tonsil is might be related to chronic tonsillitis. Can you send a photo of the lump, so it will be easier for me to give more precise suggestions?

I advise to get checked by an ENT specialist to determine the final diagnosis. You might need to run a throat swab culture or biopsy as per your ENT doctor's advise after checking it up.

All the best!
