Hi. Cancer of the tonsil does not develop within a few days. IT would help if you know whether you had any problem in the past. This is the infection of the tonsil most probably called a follicular tonsillitis. Consult an ENT Surgeon, he would give you another antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicines - continue treatment for 2 more weeks, if this resolve be happy and forget about the tonsil. If this is suspected by your Doctor he will go for tonsillectomy... will solve the problem forever,
