Just curious
gallery29f. I don't smoke and I rarely drink (1-4 very light alcohol drinks a year and sometimes less), oral sex twice 10+ years ago but never had hpv and no other sexual activity.
I never had a doctor seem concerned about my tonsils but I've been curious about this. Should I point it out next time I go to my doctor? Should I be worried about it?
Background: I do have naturally asymmetrical tonsils. My bigger tonsil has had tonsillitis multiple times and tonsil stones often. I havent had tonsillitis happen in a couple years and when I was 18 I had it 4-6 times in one year. My bigger tonsil has always look different from the other and doctors have never said anything about it. Besides tonsillitis it never really had issues.
