You might be suffering from reflux laryngopharyngitis which is type of acidity related disorder. White patches you are seeing are probably the debris collected in the crypts of tonsils which is not really abnormal. You may need long term treatment with anti reflux medications for treatment of your reflux
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
