7 yr f has 1 white spot on left tonsil no fever or sore throat why and what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly normal: Lots of reasons, could be food stuck in tonsil crypts, could also be a "stone" or some calcification of material in the tonsil. But of course when we have pain, fever, and possible pus...get checked out for kids.
