I've had this white spot on my tonsil for a few days now, and whenever I touch it with a swab, it feels like a piece of rice comes out. It's happened a few times in the same spot, and even though I'm gargling with hot water and taking medicine, its not going away. I can feel something at the back of my mouth, but there isn't much pain. I've had tonsillitis since I was a kid, but this feels different. Plus, there's some pain in my ear. Could this be some kind of infection?

I'm experiencing this odd tick tick sound in my nose quite frequently, and every time I hear it, it seems like my nose suddenly clears up, but I dont have a cold. Could this be a sign of something serious?
it's unlikely to be anything major. it may be sound of secretions moving in a narrow space of your nose. anyways for confirmation you can consult nearby ENT specialist
