A member asked:

Is it possible for only one tonsill to swell? i know i'm either getting sick or i am sick stuffy nose headache sore throat but only one tonsil swollen

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Only one tonsil can swell. You need to watch for severe soreness and swelling on one side which could be symptoms of an abscess forming. I would Reccomend if you have pus on only one tonsil that you be evaluated.
