A member asked:
Is it possible that i have tonsillitis? how can i tell?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Look in mouth: Sore throat, fever, pain swallowing and red, enlarged, inflamed tonsils often with whitish exudate are the hallmarks of tonsillitis. Frequently swelling in the neck occurs at the same time. If in doubt have your doctor look.
