[|Human|] Hello. In the last couple days I have noticed my asthma worsening, and today my throat is a little sore. I also have a red spot on my right tonsil. The tonsil is swollen as well. I had a red spot like this on my throat earlier in the month as well. Do you think it s something viral, or should I see a doctor about it?
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Most common cause for tonsillitis is viral infection which is followed by bacterial causes. The virus can easily gain entry into the body which will be trapped by the tonsils, which is one of the important lymphoid organ and try to neutralize the virus there by produces the mediators of pain and fever, which will leads to congestion and increased body temperature. The triggering factor for the asthma should be identified, because the tonsillitis is secondary to asthma. The triggering factor may be an allergen like dust, mite, pollen and food. The prolong attack of asthma leads to recurrent attacks of Chat Doctor. Thank you.
