My tonsils feel swollen, but when i look at them they do not look swollen at all. They do not hurt, but i find myself swallowing a lot regardless if there is anything to swallow or not. my throat also feels dry, but not very serious. any ideas of what could be wrong?
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to tonsillitis which is an inflamamtion of the tonsils. One of the common causes of tonsillitis is a virla infection. I suggest using anti inflammatory throat spray for local application. I also recommend to drink liquids.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
