Tonsil stones or keratosis tonsil?

2021-11-06 11:55:40
I had tonsilitis before and there was some white stuff which got dislodged with betadine gargle. This ledt a huge hole and I have had cheesy white stuff. I went to couple of ENT doctors. One doctor said it's tonsillar slough the other said it's keratosis tonsils. I have not symptons at all. But I want to get rid of this white stuff. I am advised hydrogen peroxide gargle with water. Please advice me how to get rid of it.
