Is it common to develop tonsillitis after having teeth extracted?

Hi,I did the following:
Is it common to develop tonsillitis after having teeth extracted?I was treated for tonsillitis with antibiotics April 14 - 24, and it seemed to have cleared it up. On May 19, I had two left, upper teeth extracted. Today as I was yawning I felt the same feeling that I had felt in the back of my throat before the tonsillitis had become painful. It's not sore, but I definitely feel it when I yawn. Could having teeth extracted mimic that feeling in the back of my throat?

Indiana Jones
i had my wisdom teeth out and my throat killed for a few days. the sore throat most likely is not tonsillitis its probably just due to the tooth removal.
