Tonsil infected???

24f. No health conditions.

Recently I got a cold from my toddler. I had a fever for the first time in years (38.3C orally). The fever was only for one evening a couple nights ago and no fever since.
I have the typical other symptoms: runny nose, cough, sore throat. My throat isn’t any more sore than usual, however, I noticed that on one side my tonsil appears to be bloody. I did gently touch it with a q tip and there was a bit of pink blood that was on the q tip. It didn’t hurt much at all to touch.

Is that normal? I’ve never had a bleeding tonsil.
