Hello all,
I am new to this forum although I have been reading the posts for some time.

I would like your views on the below subject:
My left Tonsil seems to be overgrown / inflamed (assymentrical) and although I don't have difficulty in swallowing, it kind of pricks me when I swallow. I have been to 2 ENT doctors and both of them have diagnosed me with LPR. However, I am not sure if LPR can cause any inflamation of the tonsils. My additional symptoms are twitching in base of tongue and throat and also occasional pain in the tongue.


I need your advice if I should ask my ENT to do a biopsy of the inflamed tonsil. I was a smoker for around 7 years (about 100 packs per year) and stopped it around 3 years back.

I need your kind advice.
