I have had quinsy twice in the past. I have been fine for the last few years.
A few days ago I woke up with a sore throat on one side and this morning it was still sore and the to SIL on that side is swollen. I called the doctor and o am waiting for a call back.
BUT I feel a bit silly - I have only had a sore throat a few days and It’s not as bad as it was last time - I am just afraid it will get worse! I am feeling really bad now about asking for a call back about this when there is an actual pandemic 
Does anyone know anything about quinsy at all? Is it possible to “catch it early” before it gets to the point of needing to be in hospital? Am I over reacting to a little sore throat!!
