A member asked:
I have some yellow spots on my tonsils and they've given me a lot of discomfort. what should i do? are there any remedies for these kind of things
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Culture, treatment: If the yellow spots are causing discomfort, i would strongly recommend a culture and sensitivity because they may represent bacterial colonies. If the culture reveals pathogenic bacteria, then an appropriate antibiotic can help.
