[sboyd0519]

I woke up a few days ago with a slight sore throat. NOw its really sore, I can hardly swallow anything. My glad is sollen on the one side and inside my mouth there is a round pus looking thing right where my tonsils are or before tonsils, not quite sure waht i could be?

Off to the doctors with you tomorrow and get them to have a look. In the meantime gargle with warm water and salt. Sounds like you need some antibiotics.

I agree with 20SilkCut.

Sounds like Quinsy - you definitely need to see a doctor.

My daughter had almost identical symptoms when she was 16, she ended up spending 9 days in hospital (being barrier nursed) with quinsy and glandular fever which caused inflammation in her liver and spleen. Her complications were due to an allergy to penicillin and the doctors struggling to find an antibiotic that worked.

Get yourself to your GP as soon as possible.

I have just come out of hospital for treatment of Quinsy - the second time in 5 weeks.

Sounds like you have it - as others have said get to the Drs and see what they say.
