A member asked:

I have had a mildly sore throat for about 2 weeks. 2 white dots on tonsil that are small but growing. no fever, mild congestion. anything i can do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tonsillar stones?: You may be having an illness but the duration of the symptoms and the persistence of white spots on the tonsils suggests tonsillar stones, a not serious but bothersome condition. Your doctor can help you make a clear diagnosis.
