I have a hole at the side of my tonsil and fills up with yellow, the doctor said its nothing to worry about but he never gave me anything to cure it ?

Tonsil crypt: This may be a crypt in the tonsil that fills up with secretions that may harden. A waterpic to clean the area usually helps. Best to check with your otolaryngologist
