Ive had tonsillitis and it's incredibly painful. You would definitely be able to tell if you just had a sore throat. Tonsillitis makes it hurt REALLY bad when you try to swallow anything, even your spit. Most the time people that have that have to get their tonsils removed, I did anyway.

There are different extremities your throat can mildly hurt and you can still have tonsillitis, it can also start out mild and increase from there, give it a while it may hurt more later on, unfortunately. Having tonsillitis does not mean you need to get your tonsils out, it is actually quite hard to get a doctor and insurance to agree to take them out. The only way to get them out it if you have multiple cases of severe tonsillitis. Fluids and rest are best.
