Red circular small spot on left tonsil
I noticed a red small red circular spot on the left tonsil from 5-6 days. There are no other symptoms like fever, no throat pain, no cough. Can you please tell me what could be the cause and whether I need any treatment or it is something that usually go away on its own?
