Hello,
The white spot could be because of the small salivary gland swelling.
There are many salivary glands inside the mouth which can get swollen up and cause problems.
Now you need to take gargles to decrease the infection in it.
Like Betadine germicide gargles would help a lot.
In doubt do reply.
