White Circle In Throat, Flap Of Skin Near Tonsils. Earlier Removed Tonsils And Adenoids
Hello I had my tonsils and adenoids removed when i was 25. I m 41 and went to dentist for a cleaning and they saw an small flap of skin near where my tonsils were. He did a cancer screening and I don t have cancer. I didn t know it was there and when I looked I saw what looked like a whiteish circle on my right side of throat . What would cause this?
