Enlarged tonsil and pain on RHS

im wondering if anyone can shed any light on this. I have been back and forward to the doctor with what appears to be a slightly enlarged tonsil and a pain that radiates down my neck and under my jaw, all just on the right side. excercise seems to aggrevate it but apart from that it remains pretty much constant. i wouldnt say its sore, but im just aware of this constant discomfort in my tonsil. its been going on now for around 12 weeks.

bit of background info that may or may not be related. i was diagnosed with celiac disease earlier this year but have been GF for 7 months now. i have also been back and forth to a GI doctor as i have mildly inflamed bowels that are causing pain.

could the tonsil problem be related to my bowel problems or does it sound like something else altogether?

i have had blood tests that all came back fine, and my doc has currently got me on a PPI incase it is being caused by reflux but its not making any difference to be honest.

any help would be greatfully recieved.
