Get eval: Could be a number of things. Consider if it associated with pain and getting better or worse. If you have no pain or symptoms you can consider seeing if it goes away within 2 weeks. Otherwise see a dentist to find out. Could be a minor fungal infection, minor trauma, apthous ulcers. Just depends on what other symptoms you have. Get it looked at either way if it stays longer than 2 weeks. Good luck.

White bump: If you are not sure the white bumps are your normal tonsils or not, please ask a dentist or a physician for the opinion. Neither white nor red bump in that area behind tongue is good.
