Have Swelling In The Tonsil Along With White Growth
My partner has ongoing inflammation on her tonsils, she has a broken tooth on the same side as her swollen tonsil and her other tonsil is swollen too. She said she can see a white growth on the back of her throat, but when I shine a light in her mouth I can't see what she is talking about. She has also has abdominal pains prior to her tonsils becoming inflamed. She is worried it may be tonsil cancer.
I have studied your case

Due to infection there is shiny white membrane on tonsil.
I will advise for clinical examination from your treating doctor.
After required investigation antibiotic treatment may relive symptoms.
For cancer detection you may need further investigation.

Take care.
