White spot on tonsil no pain

2019-01-29 07:21:08
I have a tiny white spot at the back of right tonsil for last 10days or so. Went to general doctor and he prescribed antibiotic Poxivio 200 saying its a bacterial infection. But it did not helped. So went to ENT specialist, he checked and told me that its food debris and he removed a little part of that white spot,but it has not completely gone, its still there. When I asked ENT doc, he said he will not completely pull it as it may have blood loss. So he just prescribed to have warm gargle and advised tablet Zadonase. Shall I worry?

You probably have tonsillolith which is nothing but small stones embedded in tonsillar crept, usually no treatment is required they will fall, nothing to worry
