Inflammed?

Question

***Just wanna say I know y'all are not doctors but I just opinions as going to the doctors is not easy for me at this time. Does my right tonsil look inflammed? I feel like there's a bump on it but idk what it is. (my tongue is blue from a popsicle lol)

Answer

In my (unprofessional) opinion, it looks normal. At the most it can be sore/irritated throat. Doesn't look like strep or tonsillitis. 
Try drinking warm drinks like ginger, lemon and honey, chamomile, mint tea, etc, maybe take vitamin C and even gargle with warm salt water, listerine, and/or hydrogen peroxide mixed with water. 
If it worsens or you develop a fever, then you'll need to go to the doctor. 
Hopefully it's just irritated and you feel better! Keep yourself hydrated...
Good luck 🍀💛

Answer

I have lots on tonsil issues (totally random I know but I’ve had tons of sore throats/strep in my life). These do not look inflamed or swollen. Maybe a little but not significantly. If you are worried about strep you’d see red dots around the roof of your mouth and/or you’d see what looks like yogurt on your tonsils. If it’s strep, you may also have swollen lymph nodes in your neck, a fever, chills, or trouble swallowing. Do you have any other symptoms? Looks like you’ve just got a sure throat, probably from a cold.
