What Causes Swelling Of Adenoid And White Stuff On Tonsils?
About a week ago my tonsils had white stuff all in them, it then began to go away and my adenoid of the right side started to swell. There is still a little white stuff in my tonsils but not that much. Now it hurts very bad to eat, drink and even talk. There are now patches on the very back of my throat. I don t know what it is.

Hi..
It can be due to tonsilitis ..
Whitish discoloration is due to
candidiasis
Bacterial or viral infection
Approach a doctor for getting a swab test to know precisely what is cause of infection
For temporary relief take paracetamol+aceclofenac combination and steroid for few days to get relief..
Do oral betadine gargles..
If you have anymore queries I would be happy to help you..
