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?

It's understandable to be concerned about tongue-tie release surgery for your 6-month-old baby. While the procedure is generally safe, especially for infants, it's crucial to weigh the potential benefits and risks with your pediatrician or a specialist like an ENT or pediatric dentist. General anesthesia is also safe for infants, but it's a factor to consider in the overall decision
