Diagnosed Polyp On Right Tonsil. Black Spot On Left Tonsil. On Cefalexin For Cold. Suggest
Good day! I am 25 years old (male, 60kg and 5'7" in height). I was diagnosed of a polyp on my right tonsil last month. Recently, I noticed a black spot on my left tonsil. I wonder what it is and how can I cure it? I am currently taking Cefalexin due to colds I've experienced last 2weeks. Your response will be highly appreciated. Thank you.
