A member asked:
A week ago, i looked in my throat and saw a tiny whitish lump on my tonsil. it looks almost like a pus-filled bubble - round, smooth, superficial, no more than 2mm. i cant touch it, but it looks like it would be soft. it is not a stone. what is it?

In the absence of throat soreness.this.doesn't appear to be pus or anything serious. I doubt it's a growth & would put it in the category of an early tonsillar stone. If you're still concerned, consult an ENT specialist for evaluation & advice.
