What does white spots(no sore throat) on my left tonsil mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Food debris: If they are really enlarged it could be food debris that collects on surface. Try rinsing with non alcohol rinse and see if it goes away. You can also try a water pik set on real. Most importantly see your dentist.
