I get frequent tonsilitis. right now i dont have tonsilitis but my tonsils are not the same size. no other symptoms other than tonsil stones. should i be worried for tonsil cancer?

Unlikely: at your age...and the size of your tonsils may normally vary from side to side depending upon a whole host of factors the most common of which is the number of infections they have "filtered". Hope this is helpful! Dr Z
