Is tonsillitis contagious? My bf has it but he is on meds, and I kissed him, can I get it?

Other people asked questions on various topics, and are still
waiting for answer. Would be great if you can take a sec and

Is tonsillitis contagious? My bf has it but he is on meds, and I kissed him, can I get it?
If so when do you think my symptoms will show?

Yes it is contagious because its caused by bacteria. & since u kissed him you've already been exposed to it. Even though he has meds, the bacteria is still there so u can catch it very easily. But here are some of the symptoms:
-Red swollen, sore throat (yellow or white pus maybe be spotted on the tonsils)
-Difficulty swallowing or breathing
-Fever
-Bad breath
-Dry mouth
-Headache
-Loss of appetite
-Fatigue
-Earache
& -Abdominal pain
