What Causes White Pimple Like Bumps On Inside Of Cheeks And Tonsils?

I have very small painless white pimple like bumps on the inside of my cheeks and a larger red one by my tonsil area. Is this sexual? It has lasted for several months now but does not hurt. It just bothers me because I can feel them with my tongue.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of white pimple like bumps on inside cheek and tonsils which seems to be due to oral infection which could be sexual and due to infection of upper respiratory tract. Need not to worry. Msintain oral hygiene and rinse with antimicrobial mouthwash. I would suggest you to start with combination of antibiotic such as Levofloxacin and antiinflammatory medications. Donot touch or prick them with any sharp object. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You can go for biopsy of lesion and blood tests as well and start treatment after proper diagnosis and prescription.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
