A member asked:
Is there such a thing as throat pimples. if so can they actually pop and have white stuff that smells like an actually pimple or cyst.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Food particles stuck: This is usually food particles that got stuck in small crypts of tonsils or pharynx and bacteria accumulate to cause the smell but not infected. No treatment needed. Mouth wash gargle can help.
