Something stuck: It seems likely that you have some food particle stuck in there, particularly if you have tonsils with little "crypts", or holes. If it's just a little irritating, try gargling with warm salt water or use a baster and try "washing" the tonsil with a stream of water. If it is more than a little irritating, you can't get it out, or are having any trouble swallowing a normal amount, see someone.
