how do you treat a red bump under tonsil?

Hi,I did the following:
how do you treat a red bump under tonsil?I noticed this small red bump on the side of my left tonsil. Could this mean its an infection and how can i treat it? I've been getting tonsil stones on and off, i try to get them out. The worst i tried was using my finger and it either gets scratched or its red. I haven't had time to see a doctor lately cause i have new medical insurance. What should i do?

Rinse your mouth out with Listerine mouthwash about every hour till it is feeling better.
You should not be messing with picking at the bumps, if it's an infection the poking around could spread it out. Vitamin C or Echinacea might help, but the best thing to do is go to a doctor. This might turn into an abcess which is an infection.
