Tonsillar "trash": The same happened to me many years ago. That little white clump of "stuff" was probably rather foul smelling and soft. It is not pus or a stone but something a pathologist called tonsillar crypt debris. It is material that forms as a result of the tonsils working to eliminate bacteria. They require no treatment other than what you have already done.
