I have noticed a white blotch just in front of my right tonsil when i look at my throat with a light. is that normal? what is it?

Any reason to look?: If there is not particular reason (pain) that you did this, try moving the flashlight to see if the 'blotch' moves too. It could be that simple. If there was a reason, see a Dr for Dx and treatment. They can tell ou abot what they see in there. Best!
