Is Throat Cancer,related With Swollen Tonsils And Spots On Throat?

My 18 year old daughter has a really nasty looking throat. It comes and goes but never completely goes away. It is full of holes and white looking deposits. Her tonsils swell up to almost touching. She never runs a fever and it only gets sore sometimes. She does lose her voice once in a while. And it always looks like hamburger even if its not bothering her. One doc says its normal. One doc said look into throat cancer. What is your opinion. Please help us.
