I've been feeling like there's something stuck in my mouth or throat for the past couple of days, and when I checked, I saw a small white spot inside my throat. It feels like a piece of food is stuck there, but drinking water hasn't helped at all. Could this be some kind of boil or an infection? I'm a bit worried and would love your advice on this.

If your child is frequently snoring and getting colds, it may be due to enlarged adenoids or tonsils. Consult an ENT specialist to assess whether surgery (like adenoidectomy or tonsillectomy) is needed.
