Should i Go to doctor?

I had a cold 2 weeks ago. It was just a weak sinus cold. Got over it, felt fine for 2 weeks, yesterday felt funny scratchy throat, one of my tonsils is slightly swollen and there is a small amount of white stuff, looks like a piece of popcorn. I'm not running fever and I don't feel terrible, just a little weaker. Am I just getting another cold or could I need an antibiotic for my throat.

    Yea go to the doctor, you probably will need to get your tonsils removed. Do not worry it does not hurt and plus you get to eat ice cream after! Like a lot of ICEA CREAM!!! Also check this page out it has some good information regarding this issue. http://www.itonsil.com/tonsils_tonsillitis.html
