I have a white spot on my tonsils and it's not painful at all, it just feels odd to swallow ? i've never had this happen before

Possible infection: This can be an infection beginning on the Tonsils as well as a traped piece of food stuck to the folds in the tonsil that can evolve into an infection, it would be best to have your Primary Care Doctor look at it and clear it up, gargling with warm salt water may help till you get it checked, take care!
