No pain: Many viruses can cause white spots on the tonsils. If no fever or pain, you can let it run its course. If anything changes, see your primary care doctor for further evaluation.

I have a swollen neck lymph node from one side for two months. I went to my doctor and told me I had tonsillitis and pericoronitis. I got treatment about a month ago, but my neck and my tonsils are still swollen.
