### Human:\ntonsil and lymph nodes are always swollen. i'm not sure for how long probably about a month. my right tonsil and lymph nodes are swollen and i am not experiencing any pain. i get tonsil stones about once a week. i'm a 26 year old female. should i see someone?\n\n### Assistant: enlarged tonsils and lymph nodes are not uncommon and can stay swollen for quite a while after an infection. if you are concerned about their size and appearance it would be wise to be examined by an ent specialist.
