There's a big chance its strep, it it hurts to swallow. Look up strep throat, and see what symptoms you have. If you have a lot of them, I suggest going to see a doctor. Good luck.
I just checked on google.com/images, pictures of strep throat. It looks very similar to what you have. Go get checked.

i had that exact same thing and the doctors couldn't tell me what it is. It turned out to be mono and strep, it started out small, then both tonsils were completely covered in it. go to the doctor, if it gets too bad, they'll give you a shot of penicilin in your rear instead of oral antibiotics. good luck.

I'm thinking tonsil stones, since I'm assuming it's just one? Tonsil stones are caused by bacteria getting trapped in the pockets or "crypts" of your tonsils. You can take a wet Q-tip and poke at it to try to get it out. They smell disgusting, so you'll know if it's that.. I have them too, they're actually pretty common. But it doesn't look like you have white bumps on your throat, that's why I'm guessing it's not strep. But I'm not a doc, so if you think you need to, go see one. :)
