Throat substance

I’ve had a sore throat for 3 days and a doctor at a clinic said I had a sinus infection. I’ve been on antibiotics and this morning I woke up to find white rock like things next to my tonsils.

Should I be concerned? Or did the Doc most likely get it right

Sounds like infected tissue from the tonsillitis, should disappear soon when the antibiotics kick in. Good luck.

Tonsilitus infection should go within 3days on antibiotics. Salt gargles would help. Try eating toast roughness should help clean tonsil.

Good Luck
