I have a spot on my tonsil my doctor called a cobblestone, what is this? do i need to worry?

Probably okay!: Tonsils can have pockets in which food gets trapped forming a kurd like object doctors call a foreign body. Try rinsing well after starchy foods. A soft toothbrush can be used to dislodge some particles. Your dentist can also give you an opinion.
