What Causes White Spots And Pain In Throat?
A few weeks ago I thought I had tonsillitis as my throat was hurting and a couple of white spots had appeared on my tonsils. A few days later, more appeared so I went to the doctors and he gave me some penicillin for a week. The spots then continued to go and come back. My throat it no longer in pain and on occasion hurts. The spots are really starting to bother me now and I just want to get rid of them. Could it be a problem that I bite my nails?

It seems to be slough material clogged in your tonsillar cypts. If there is no pain, fever then u should not worry and simply gargle properly.
