I have multiple allergies and the right side of my throat has been a little swollen for a while. i also smoke. there is no pain. what is it?

Be careful with this: I wish I had that crystal ball handy. I am concerned that something in your throat is swollen - on one side. AND that you have a risk factor for cancer in the throat: smoking. See your doctor about this soon. And if you need to, use this as your prompt to stop smoking once and for all. (Alan Carr's Stop Smoking Book is an inexpensive, effective start!)
