Anyone with chronic sore throat on one side only?

Hi guys.

So this seems to my worst symptom and one that I cannot get rid of. I almost always have a sore throat on my right side. Its mainly in the area around my right tonsil, which also hurts. Also my right tonsil is swollen, and much larger than the left one. The pain gets worse when I swallow. If i press the area I can feel how sore it is. It feels like it's inflamed or something. What is wierd is that the pain stops exactly where the throat "splits", and becomes the left side.

I have GERD and LPR, but I just can't understand how it would affect one side only. Stomach contents flowing up must spread all over the throat, and then my right side should also hurt.

Anyone else out there with the same problem that has an explanation, and possible a solution to the problem?

Jakob,

Just a quick reply. Definitely switch docs if they didn't check your throat at all when you presented with nothing but throat issues. There is nothing wrong with advocating for your health. Best of luck sir.
