Hi mle--glad to help; a few Q's:

-Are the tonsils swollen too? (..any white or grey spots on them?)

-Any fever?

-How long have you had symptoms?

Please note that your well-thought out responses to these questions will

greatly assist me in narrowing down the possible diagnoses, so I can reply to you

with more accurate and helpful medical advice.

Thanks, --Dr. Steve, Your Online Family Doctor
