Perhaps the most important part of the survey process is the creation of questions that accurately measure the opinions, experiences and behaviors of the public. Accurate random sampling and high response rates will be wasted if the information gathered is built on a shaky foundation of ambiguous or biased questions.
However, if you have pollen, fiber, food or other allergies then swollen tonsils might occur alongside other familiar symptoms. In some cases this will subside after a few hours. However, if your allergy triggers a serious reaction, it may swell the tonsils and throat to a point where they restrict breathing.
Throat swelling allergies are a common sign of anaphylaxis, a severe allergy that affects your entire body. Any allergic reaction can cause anaphylaxis, but some are more common than others, such as insect stings, certain food allergies and medications. Call 911 if you develop swelling in your throat.
