What Causes Lump On Tonsil With Inner Ear Pain ?
hi i noticed a small lump on my tonsil about two days ago and i have a slight pain in my inner ear on the same side. Im just wondering could the two be linked and can you give me any advice on what to do? i was going to go and see my GP about it but im afraid im over reacting and that it might be nothing worth worrying about

Hi.
The lump may be a tonsilith--a small stone-like collection in the tonsil.
That's not serious but you should have a doctor check out your ear since you may have an infection there that would require antibiotics
