The doctor told me, I have a sore throat on one side. The side of the sore throat is also swollen. When I swallow, I feel entangled and uncomfortable. I have been to many doctors but still not cured. Ask your doctor for advice.

Hello,
You have not specified whether you only have swelling of your face or eyes and have not provided the results of previous examinations, so the doctor cannot advise you exactly on your problem .
However, one-sided sore throat with difficulty swallowing is related to common tonsillitis. You need to see an ENT specialist for an accurate diagnosis. Only then can a successful treatment plan be developed.
You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System for more detailed advice.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards!
