Or am I being daft? Woke up yesterday morning with a pain that I thought was in my right tonsil. Tried to ignore it. Figured I was getting a cold. Woke up this morning and it's so much worse. My tonsil is fine and when I press in my mouth it's my soft palate that feels tender and bruised. It's hard to eat because it's so painful. Would I be daft to call the GP because my mouth hurts? Just doesn't feel like a normal sore throat...
