What Could Be The White Seed Like Behind The Pillar Of Left Tonsil?
I ve noticed behind the pilar of my left tonsil I have this white seeds like that came out and they have a terrible smell. I don t have symptoms of a cold, no fever, no sore throat. I ve have had them before and I wonder what they are and how they form there?
Hello! the white seeds are actually partially digested food particles which have undergone some bacterial degradation also, hence the foul smell! Your tonsils have deep pits called the CRYPTS , these particles tend to lodge in them and get colonised by bacteria! i would recommend that you gargle after every meal with warm salt water! that will help thanks
