What's the matter with the white spots on the tonsils

Tonsils are important organs in our body and are very prone to disease, with a high chance of developing it. In daily life, many people find white spots on their tonsils. Because they don’t know the reason, they are quite nervous. After all, if inflammation occurs, it will cause great trouble to life. So, what are the white spots on the tonsils? Let’s take a closer look below.

This is tonsillar crypt secretion. It is usually yellowish-white and has a foul odor. Because there are a large number of bacteria in the folds of the tonsils, the food residues after eating and the secretions of the tonsils themselves multiply and ferment in the folds. After a long period of accumulation, they will have a rotten and unpleasant smell.

You don't have to worry about it at ordinary times. These discharges will fall off on their own.

But most of the time it is a symptom of chronic tonsillitis. For drug treatment, you can consider some Western medicines for treating chronic tonsillitis, or Chinese patent medicines for clearing heat, nourishing yin and tonifying the kidneys.

Since tonsillitis is difficult to completely eliminate, if your tonsils are often inflamed, you may consider removing your tonsils to eradicate the lesions.

You can gargle with salt water regularly. Try to smoke less, drink less, eat less spicy food, and drink less coffee, strong tea and other stimulating beverages. Pay attention to rest and ensure sleep. Do proper exercise to improve your body's resistance.

The above is an introduction to what causes white spots on tonsils. I hope it will be helpful to everyone’s understanding. It is normal to have white spots on your tonsils. They will usually fall off on their own and there is no need to worry. However, if any physical abnormalities occur, it is best to pay attention to them, do appropriate physical exercise, strengthen your physical fitness, and strive to improve the situation quickly.
