TGF, I would get in touch with your ENT imediatly. As in today! It may be nothing serious but you do not want to take chances with this kind of thing!

Personally, 6 months went by from the first doctor I saw, he was not all that concerned. I wish badly I had not waited.


Mark, 21 Year survivor, SCC right tonsil, 3 nodes positive, one with extra-capsular spread. I never asked what stage (would have scared me anyway) Right side tonsillectomy, radical neck dissection right side, maximum radiation to both sides, no chemo, no PEG, age 40 when diagnosed.
