I've been told I need to get a tonsillectomy and I'm kind of anxious about it. Are there any risks or side effects I should be worried about? Is it really safe to go through with the tonsillectomy?

My throat's been making this strange cracking sound whenever I hold it and move it a bit to the side. I've also been dealing with some acidity issues that sometimes lead to heavy vomiting. It feels like there's a bone-like blockage in my throat, and when I vomit like this, it sometimes causes bleeding in my throat. Can someone please help me figure out what's going on with me?

I've noticed a lump in front of my left tragus, and it's painless even when I touch or press it. It also seems to be mobile. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or if there's any specific way I should manage it. Could it be something serious or is it likely harmless?
This lump could be a benign condition such as a sebaceous cyst or a lipoma. It is important to monitor the lump for any changes in size, shape, or symptoms. If the lump causes any discomfort or grows in size, it is recommended to consult a doctor for further evaluation. In case of infection or inflammation, antibiotics may be prescribed. If necessary, the lump can be surgically removed.
