Why Is My Tonsil Sore And Has A Sac Like Thing Around It?

My throat has been sore for the last few weeks- these last two days I've noticed pain when I swallow. I've checked my throat using a mirror and light- near my left tonsil, there's two white sack-looking things that I believe might be tonsil stones. What should I do?

Hello

the easiest and best method is to gargle with warm salt water 4-5 times a day , that will bring out the white stuff!!
If this does not help , meet your ent doctor , he may give you antibiotics and remove the white stuff , which will reduce your sore throat.

Thanks
