One Swollen Tonsil, white spot?

These are useful and collceted by kong!
One Swollen Tonsil, white spot?So I noticed yesterday that whenever I tried to swollen, it felt like something was stuck in my throat. When I decided to look inside my mouth last night, I noticed that one tonsil (my left one) was swollen, and if I open my mouth really wide (yawning) I can see a white spot sorta behind it.Both tonsils are also red. My lymph nodes are a lil swollen too, not sore though.
Is it a tonsil stone? or signs of strep/tonsillitis?
Any help would be appreciated.
I'd also like to add that I've had an on/off headache and slight nausea in the past day if that matters.

Sounds like strep throat to me, sorry! because I know how bad strep sucks, but I have had it plenty also. Hope you get better :)

Hi, I used to get this all the time when I was younger. White spots=Strep Throat.
Go to the doctor and get some antibiotics, hope you feel better soon!

my lady displaying the same symptoms was treated w\nystatin ,amoxacillin,prednizone,acidophillus. and was never really given a dianosis after five visits to 3 diffrent doctors.

It sounds like a strep-throat; however, that's the sort of diagnosis only a doctor can make. Go to the doctor asap.

Why don't you see a medical doctor? This is the only sensible solution I can see. Infections just seem to get worse if left to their own devices. Good luck.

hmmm everyone's a doctor these days...

Yes, Strep throat would be the first suspect...

However it could also be a fungal infection giving off growths.

Either way, you'll need to see a doctor in person. He'll take cultures and prescribe some anitibiotics.
