I have a cut on my tonsil. it hurts to swallow, yawn other than that its ok. no white spots or other cuts. what is it from & how to heal it?

Hard to know: How long have you had this? Should heal on its own within a couple of days. If not, need to have it examined. Would suspect trauma (eg chocking on a chicken bone) or maybe tonsil stone related irritation.
