Can white patches on your tonsils appear 3 months after mono infection?

Not usually: I advise ENT evaluation. Cannot be diagnosed without direct observation or photo documentation.

Some basics: The majority of older teen & adult cases of mono will be symptom free in 3-4 weeks. A few will continue with some residual for 3 mo. Any new tonsilar flare up at 3 mo should be considered a new infection of another agent.
