A member asked:
I can feel my tonsillar lymph nodes on both sides of my neck, is that normal to be able to feel them?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If you can feel them on the side of the neck, they are not tonsils but likely from something else. If this has been present for more than a month or is getting worse, best to see your doctor.
