| Re: Swollen Lingual Tonsils
I have the same thing and trust me, if you've have the laryngoscopy (scope) and you're doctor has assured you that your throat is not in danger of "closing up", you should believe him
I have the same issue due to lingual tonsil hypertrophy and just having a large neck in general. Sometimes they will do a neck ct scan like they did with me, just to be extra thorough, but it's usually not necessary
The only thing you can do is take acid reflux meds and deal with it. They usually only remove the linguals and/or other tissue if it's causing significant airway obstruction
