What Causes White Spots On The Back Of My Throat?
I've had white spots on the back of my throat for about a week now. I don't have a sore throat or fever and feel fine. I was doing some sanding recently without a mask. I also snorted an Adderall that same day. I'm wondering if my actions could have caused this or if there is something else to blame. I would love to know how to make them go away.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The white spots over the throat or tonsil can be because of tonsillitis/tonsilloliths or fungal infection like candidiasis. Nothing to worry consult an Otolarynglogist and get it evaluated. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, it can be treated accordingly with antibiotics or antifungal agents. Mean while you can do saline gargling.
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
