Long standing infection in the tonsils will give rise to the white spots on the tonsils. There is a wrong notion amongst the people the tonsils should not be removed as they needed by the body. The tonsils are very much required in the early part of life when body is exposed to all kinds of micro organisms and these are trapped and processed and delivered to the immune system for production of antibodies. Later in adult life they are of a nuisance than anything else. If the tonsils are causing frequent complaints of the throat including bad breadth then better to undergo tonsillectomy.
