You seem to be looking at whitish debris over tonsils which is not really abnormal. It is known as keratosis pharyngeus. If you do not have significant throat pain and difficulty in swallowing then you need not worry about it
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
