REALLY bad case of Tonsillitis, should I go to the hospital?
Posted , 2 users are following.
Hi,
So I know there is a lot of threads like this but I'm not finding any with one of the symptoms I'm having.
It started off as any normal bout, yesterday evening i actually managed to eat without it hurting when i swallowed, but not 2 hours afterwards I could feel my throat closing up again.
I went to bed, tried to sleep, dozed of for about an hour and then woke up with this agonising pain in the throat on the right side, where my tonsil had been swollen,
I got my boyfriend to check my tonsils and he said they were no longer white but just very swollen and inflammed.
Now today, I can't even swallow anything without it trying to go up my nose, or without choking. My tongue feels swollen, my neck is all swollen too and my cheek also feels a bit numb. My airways are also very blocked so i can't breathe right when i lay down.
I can't drink or eat anything, and I'm VERY small as it is and can't afford to lose anymore weight.
Should I leave it to see what happens or go to he hospital tomorrow?
Thanks!

Still waiting on these damn lymph nodes to go down though, and I still cant open my mouth wider than an inch or so, just enough to get my toothbrush in there. When will that get better?
