Could the yellow spots on my tonsils be a std?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See your MD: It would very hard to tell what the spots are from the description. If you have been exposed to STDs and/or have spots on you tonsils you should be checked by a physician. It is be the safest and easiest way to find out what is going on.
